About This Item
Clonemel, Tipperary, Ireland:: Coracle,, 2004.. Edition of 300. 6 x 8.5"; 144 pages. Offset in two colours with letterpress tab-index. Casebound in green leather with title stamped on front board. Green ribbon book mark attached. This books looks like a guidebook. Instead, it's a poetic record of travel to France by Simon Cutts and Erica Van Horn from 1989 to 2004. The book is outfitted with green alphabetical tabs that index the names of French cities and towns alphabetically. Next to each city's name is a number identifying its department (that is, its region, what would be a state in the US). A map of these departments is included along with a few photographs and the instruction to "pronounce all French place names as in English." Simon Cutts: "The poem's manifestation becomes the book itself, the particular book form the physical metaphor of the poem."
