About This Item
Eugene, OR: Lone Goose Press, 1997. Eschner, Robin. Square small quarto. (22)pp., accordionfold. One of fifty copies, signed by both the author and by the artist, Robin Eschner. Deeply printed with Eschner's woodcuts, the whole unfolds into a nearly 22-foot-long panorama up to the task of Lopez's melancholy celebration of the American landscape, as seen from his Toyota 4-Runner. By turns, Lopez expounds upon the beauty of the terrain and its animals, in death or in life, or he elicits discomfort and nostaligia for a world passing away, noting moments of decriptude or human incursion. There is, then, a feeling of homecoming and hope ("the reassurance of a human enterprise"), even through Lopez's meditation on an environment already irreconcilably changed. Bound in quarter orange paper over boards, with topographic maps of Wyoming as covers. Housed as the interior of the rear board is a tire tread print from the 4-Runner. Fine. Housed in black cloth-covered dropback box.
