Description

Journey to Mexico collects nearly all of Antonin Artaud's writings related to his voyage to the land of the Tarahumara. Prior to this journey, he prepared writings that would be followed by pieces published in Mexico and lectures delivered there. After his journey, he wrote essays, letters, and poems reflecting on and reframing his experiences.

A selection of these letters conveys the personal challenges Artaud faced during his ten-month journey, from physical to financial struggles. This collection provides a unique insight into Artaud's search for a vital form of culture rooted in the soil of a place.

Published in 2024, this book presents a comprehensive account of Artaud's intellectual work and personal experiences during his time in Mexico.
