how Sylvere Lotringer fucked over a good-willed translator.
Quoted: Grub Street Revisited
Semiotext(e) doyen Sylvère Lotringer tries to get his grubby paws in the honey potKnown to many as an unassuming translator of Italian and French theory into English, for many years Arianna Bove has studied the question of ontology in the work of Michel Foucault. As part of her doctoral degree - awarded by the University of Sussex in 2005 - Arianna translated and published Foucault's own doctoral thesis, an investigation of Kant's Anthropology from a pragmatic point of view. She spent the summer of 2001 in the IMEC archives in Paris transcribing this little known text and painstakingly and diligently translating its contents in the hope that other serious scholars of Michel Foucault could also have access to the work. Both the English and French versions of the text were subsequently lawfully published as a part of her final thesis. And then along came M. Lotringer.

Ended up here on Sunday - not a busy night (another couple came in 10 minutes after us, and we were probably the only 4 customers that night)
I had the Wild Boar Zharkoe - a meat stew with a bread top that soaks up the juices as you eat it. Lisa had the Porcini Blinis and the roasted veggies. More than enough for 2 meals, and great flavor.
This place ain't cheap, and that's probably why they weren't busy, but the food was really good.

Interesting. I always love a good Kay Graham story. I also like his takes on scorecards and U2.

She made it her job to try to give him more polish. … [He] became a regular guest at Graham’s famous dinners, which he called her ‘Kay Parties.’ He enjoyed his status as the hayseed who was flummoxed by a lobster.”
