by Francis Picabia ; translated by Rémy Hall.

Published & edited by Raymond Foye and Francesco Clemente.
The name - as well as the striking format - were influenced by Indian prayer books collected on a trip to India in 1985. "The books, small in size and bright in color, were always dedicated to the writings of a particular guru or saint, and were intended to be carried around with ease in a shirt pocket for potential contemplation throughout daily life." The editors elected to publish a series of similarly designed books to showcase contemporary writing, hard-to-find translations, and "exquisite expressions" of poets and artists. They named the press after Hanuman, the Hindu monkey god.
The Cushing Library/Women & Gender Studies copy was acquired as part of the Antonio C. LaPastina and Dale Rice Collection.
