The third installment of my “Pulled off my shelves” series (houndishly hosted by lemonhound) is “There are some punctuations that are interesting and some punctuations that are not.”
No press is proud to announce the publication of Directions by Robert Fitterman and Steve Giasson.
For Les Figues Press‘ fundraising auction, Fitterman offered something called “Not A Thing;” an offer to collaborate on a conceptual text.

Published in an edition of 60 handbound copies (30 of which are for sale), each copy has handcut BFK Rives covers. Directions is available for $8 (shipping included). To order, please contact derek beaulieu.
