Octavo. 55, (5)pp. Illustrations by the press's chief designer, Rolando Estévez, adopt a surrealist-feminist style entirely suited to the agendas and aesthetics of Roque's poetry. Androgynous figures appear throughout - and those of a more traditionally feminine look, with breasts and long hair, appear in aggressive postures. Thus a multi-gender, multimedia experience, with elements of paper collage, wood, cardboard, tissue, and yarn. Miniscule bumps to few corners, else fine.
