Concordance.

Grenfell Press, 2019. Item #537

Printed letterpress on Somerset and Whatman in an edition of 46 numbered and signed copies. Handbound in Japanese Teachest by Claudia Cohen. The book comprises 70 pages of Howe’s collage poems accompanied by “Envoi,” issued as a chapbook printed on Whatman. The two books are enclosed in a slipcase made of Teachest and Satogami. A beautiful production from Leslie Miller at Grenfell Press. As new, at published price.

"Concordance presents a body of fiercely non-conformist poems. These works—full of transplantations and ghostly whispers, excisions and erasures, fragments of half-remembered bonds and newly felt correspondences—seem to lift off the page in 'rotating prisms.' Coursing through Concordance is an exultant, savage spirit of salvage, redeeming stories that seemingly can never be told, and yet (with the witchcraft of the omitted words somehow edging themselves back in again) making the old new and bringing—via split, treasured words—lost worlds home." (Grenfell Press.)
