Ce que Brion m'a dit de Gysin, an interview/memoir by Ramuntcho Matta with Kristell Loquet, as published by Marcel le Poney (Illiers-Combray, France) in 2026, in an edition of 700 copies, the first 30 of which are numbered, signed, and include a drawing by Ramuntcho Matta. Text is in French.

This book is about Brion Gysin, and includes a number of photographs of Gysin, art by Gysin, and a list of recordings by Gysin. As perhaps expected in a book about Brion Gysin, William S. Burroughs is also noted, and there are photographs of him, as well.

Photographs are by Ramuntcho Matta, Elli Medeiros, Isabelle Baudron, Mathieu Bourgois, Udo Breger, Margault Lamoureux, Paula Court, François Lagarde, Victor Bockris, Ira Cohen, and Suzi Wyss.

I have an additional copy of this in the archive. Both are unsigned.
