In den WarenkorbHardcover. Zustand: Fine in Fine Slipcase. Limited Edition. Limited Edition. Hardcover. Dedicated to the memory of Leonard Baskin. A collection of Hecht's poems exploring various biblical figures, the ten poems creating a textual minyan (the minium number of adult Jews needed for certain services). Letterpress by Art Larson; han…d set by Karen Randell, bound by Shoshannah Wineburg with assistance from Barry Spence. "Ten poems by Anthony Hecht were printed in sixteen point Spectrum and illustrated with intaglios by Kuch. These psychological reflections and sometimes first person accountings of scriptural personages bring them to life, forming a figurative minyan, the quorum to commence prayer under Jewish law. Two aquatints wing each poem, one on the verso, one on a foldout attached to the following recto. Kuch's dark imagery further enliven the archetypal personalities." [publisher's statement]. Tight, bright, and unmarred. Black cloth boards, deep red glass plane inlay at one front board panel, paper onlay label at the second front board panel, each leaf-group folds out in triptychs (text in the center, braced with etchings); slipcase in olive cloth, paper spine labels. 4to. np. Illus. (color and b/w plates). Numbered limited edition, this being __ of 70.
