Salutations 1995

The Perishable Press Limited, Mount Horeb, Wisconsin, 2001

Description

Every book poses the special question of how to convert the integrity of meaning from idea to physical artifact with the guiding gnomon of appropriateness. The solution has to do with egolessness in listening, love and respect of text, and a crafting that allows for the dignity of risk. The audience is fellow-subversives who absolutely love to read books and who are addicted sensualists devoted to the extension of text.
