Perfect bound offset printed book with laser cut pages. Preface features the entire poem written as a block of text with each line separated by a slash (/). This block-transcription of the Mallarme text was carried out in 1969 by Broodthaers. 12 double spreads follow, with cut out windows standing in for the text. This book is connected to a triptych; three iterations of Mallarme's poem "Un Coup de Des Jamais N'Abolira Le Hasard" (Paper; Transparent).

CBA has two copies.
