Narrow folio. (10)ff., accordion fold. Thurman's poetic contemplation on love and connection is here represented by a point-counterpoint architectural design. Two outer hinges of the accordion bear rectangular cut-outs, as if to winnow the book's structure down to only its essentials; but this belies Julia Farrer's main achievement, a center pop-up of layered, hand-colored intaglio prints composing a geometric structure. At once tower and tunnel, the pop-up echoes the substructure of the poem and the formulas by which it connects language and image to human experience. It recalls, too, a vision of a city skyscraper, and the dual sense of community and separateness that coincide so frequently in urban life. Bound in stiff gray wrappers. Fine. Housed in chemise and slipcase.
