Description

I Burn Paris

A dystopian novel that ruthlessly dissects utopian fantasies, Bruno Jasienski presents a filthy, degenerated world where factories and machines have replaced the human. With its montage strategies reminiscent of early avant-garde cinema, this literary Futurism and Catastrophism explores a modern metropolis starkly depicted as only superficially cosmopolitan, yet hostile and animalistic at its core.

The novel's immediate writing style brings to life a world where economic relationships have turned everyone into a prostitute. With its themes of xenophobia and hatred, Jasienski issues a rallying cry to the downtrodden of the world, mixing strains of "The Internationale" with popular music.
