Item description from seller

First edition limited to 1500. pp.v, 100 (ivbl). Publisher's blue cloth with silver gilt lettering to spine and front cover. Original dust jacket. Very minor nicks to head of dust jacket. Overall in excellent condition. David Robilliard was a poet and painter, championed by Gilbert and George. Born in Guernsey in 1952, he was part of London's queer scene in the 1980s. Both his written and his painted work has a deceptive simplicity. The poems in this collection, published by Gilbert & George, were selected by Robilliard in the year he died.
