Ark Books

Ark First Edition: ALONE / Becoming the Other in Translation

Made in collaboration with Copenhagen's Ark Books and Ordered by Colour, this book contains two texts, printed here for the first time: one by Paul Auster, and one by Siri Hustvedt. Structural concept, printing and binding by Aviary Press. Book is made with two spines, and functions as a closed system; it cannot fall open without removing one of the spines, and when both spines are out, the book has no and and no beginning--thus presenting a nonhierarchical structure.

Letterpress printed from polymer and hand bound by Megan Adie / Aviary Press. Edition of 6

Held in the collections of the Royal Danish Library, New York Public Library, and Oxford University.
