Description:First Edition, manufactured in Wales. Staple fold binding, white illustrated wrappers, newsprint leaves. Book contains original concrete poetry by Gibbs. Edited by Peter Finch. "I'm concerned with the reduction of language to it's structural elements- taking it apart to see how it works. Words don't always mean what they say- their patterns and forms reveal inner processes and events, ambiguous connotations of meaning."--Michael Gibbs, exterior rear wrapper.
