Xerox


We may understand that The Devil to Pay in the Backlands is not Grande Sertão: Veredas, but I’m of the opinion that blurry vision is better than blindness. I first read The Devil to Pay in the Backlands in the form of this xerox copy while I was an undergrad. It was given to me by a good friend. And how did he come to know it? He picked it up off the shelf in the UCSD library while he was looking for a specific book, just out of curiosity.

Now this photo of it has made its way here, to wherever you are.
