Text und Töne, Autumn 2020
Throughout his acclaimed career, B.S. Johnson – ‘Britain’s one-man literary avant-garde of the 1960s’ – wrote to commissioning editors, TV producers, and literary agents with letters brimming full of ideas. Can I Come In... brings a selection of these proposals to light in a visual history of B.S. Johnson’s abandoned work.
With an Afterword from Johnson’s son Steve and a postcard reproducing the author's plan for a 'Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Johnson'.
