[Clonemel, Tipperary, Ireland]:: Coracle,, [2011].. Edition of 100. 5.375 x 8.25"; 138 unnumbered pages. Ribbon marker. Red linen covered boards. Title information stamped on spine. The only text of the book is this: "The book is the manifestation of the poem." At the books beginning, the text is printed in reverse on the recto, but shows through, in proper order, on the next verso. Midway through the book, there is a switch: the text is printed in reverse on the verso, but shows through in proper order on the preceding recto. The purity and playfulness of this book document yet again a subject that has fascinated Simon Cutts: finding the objective correlative for concrete poetry in the book.

Description:
New York:: Benjamin Rinehart,, 2021.. 5 x 5 x 3"rotating ring. Digital prints. Bristol board. Rotating images pose the question about gender - Is she a boy? Is she a girl? Benjamin Rinehart: "After not cutting my son's hair for nearly two years, he is more often called a girl than a boy. Why gender is used by society to validate a toddler's role in this world is vexing. After teaching kids at all ages over the years, I have found that specific and stereotypical gender roles are extremely limiting. Shouldn't it be that each child is allowed to decide for themselves in a natural and evolutionary way about their gender?

Austin: Texas Writers Project, 2000. Original . Broadside. FINE. 24 x 36 inches, printed on high quality coated stock with metalic ink. Shipped- rolled in heavy tube. This fabulous poster was created especially for the featured author of Texas Writers Month in 2000 held in Austin, Texas by graphic designer Marc English. It is printed on heavy high quality coated stock in metalic inks: silver and bronze and laid over a duotone photograph of the rugged Big Bend country of West Texas. The poster quotes a long scene from McCarthy's BLOOD MERIDIAN with drops of bronze red blood for emphasis. This is a stunning visual and carries the impact of the original text depicting a scene of horror as the savages line up on horseback along the ridge their glass beads and painted bodies caught forever in the sun's hot glare as they anticipate the massacre that would follow. Only McCarthy could make this scene so vivid you might have to put the book down and never finish it.
