Written in 1905 by the German poet Christian Morgenstern, "In
the Land of Punctuation" is a darkly comic linguistic caprice that
holds a resonant mirror to our times. Situated at the crossroads of
language, design, and politics, this illustrated edition is a
unique picture book for adults. Translated faithfully by Sirish
Rao, with typographic illustrations by Rathna Ramanathan, this is a
brilliantly inventive dance of text and image.
"The peaceful land of Punctuation"
"is filled with tension overnight"
"When the stops and commas of the nation"
"call the semi-colons 'parasites'"
