Bound, boards covered with hand-made off-white paper and strips of loosely woven brownish threads by Michael Yevzlin.
Significant work by the French poet P. Garnier (192-2014) and example of the new poetry according to Garnier himself defined in its visual dimension. Characteristic here is the spatialization of the poetic text. The poet offers the reader figures which are generated by the movement of a letter in the space. Thus, for example in this work, the translation of the grapheme "Z" generates, by its displacement, an "X" in "Music of Z" (pp. 44-45). With an autograph signed dedication from Garnier "à Henri-Floris Jespers, ce "Livre d'École" poèmes spatiaux pour écoliers, le 9 décembre 2002, F. 80540 Saisseval".
Prov. Henri-Floris Jespers (1889-1965), Belgian poet and literary critic (dedication).
