Folio. (25)ff. Lithographs by Eichner are aptly interleaved, each one as startlingly textured as a nature printing or rubbing. Added to these are sharp printing and considerable margins, the white negative space creating the immediate sensation being within a leafless, winter-bound tree. The result is a marriage between book format and Alvarez's poetic formalism. Fine in brown handmade paper over boards with gilt-stamped accents, all executed by David Bourbeau. Housed in dropback box. Prospectus laid in.
