The Last Slogan Regular Edition — Genesis P-Orridge correspondence archive
The Last Slogan Regular Edition is a 192-page hardcover published by Timeless Edition (France) in 2022. It collects letters written by Genesis Breyer P-Orridge to Jean-Pierre Turmel spanning the mid-1970s to the early 1990s, supplemented by an unpublished interview conducted by Nicolas Ballet in 2016 and archival documents drawn from Turmel's personal collection.
The letters are working correspondence — not retrospective commentary. They record plans, positions, and private exchanges from within the ecosystems of Throbbing Gristle and Psychic TV, without framing those contexts as the primary subject. The book functions as a document of method, assembled from primary sources rather than constructed as biography. It sits within the broader field of Music Books & Sound Culture as a publication grounded in correspondence and archival practice.
