Paperback. Condition: New. Once described as 'small explosions of intelligence and sensation, the seeds of wonder' by poet Thomas A.

This book facilitates our reception of all 77 of these shared objects through full illustrations and written clarification. Two essays connect the series to the international context of the artist's book.…
