  • Comments: The spine of a book is often the first to show signs of aging and frequent use, bearing the weight of repeated opening and closing. This wear might manifest as creases, cracks, or even partial detachment, but it also signifies that the book has been well-loved and thoroughly read. Such physical characteristics add a layer of history and character to the book, distinguishing it from pristine, untouched copies.

AUTHOR

Christensen, Inger, Nied, Susanna

SUMMARY

"...ALPHEBET evinces something of medieval plainchant, in its verbal susurrations, its alternations of the austere and the baroque. The book's mathematical schema, coupled with an insistent alliteration...and adherence to elemental detail la Guillevic, serve to propel the sequence forward, lending a cumulative, urgent quality to the work. The sections linger within the resonances of a single letter's sounds and suggestions, however, and this, combined with a penchant for abstraction and overt stylistic change-ups, allows the language and the linearity of the argument to dance in place or reset itself."Christensen, Inger is the author of 'Alphabet' with ISBN 9780811214773 and ISBN 081121477X.
