Bebuquin is an experimental novel by Carl Einstein. It is his only novel, but Carl Einstein is better known as an art theorist and critic. His book, Negerplastic, was a ground-breaking appraisal of the value of African art, influencing many contemporary artists, particularly Picasso. Einstein died in 1940, committing suicide in France, after leaving Germany after the rise of the Nazis. Bebuquin is a frequently baffling novel about a man's search for the miraculous.
