Review # 1 was written on 2014-05-24 00:00:00 Linda Owens-Wright What can be more fascinatng than a very rich man who traveled around the world without leaving his room on a ship, and built the first luxury car for himself, that had a toilet. Which by the way, Boris Vian owned much later. Also he self-published his novels, and when that failed - he produced a big budget play based on that novel. Of course that failed as well. But Duchamp and Breton was in that audience and it changed both lives for the better. Yet ironically Roussel could care less for the avant-garde. He thought he was producing 'popular' entertainment pieces. Impressions of Africa - the first work by a 20th Century "outsider."
