First published in 1905, German poet Christian Morgenstern's piece
is a darkly comic linguistic caprice. Illustrated with punctuation
marks, the text is a romp, and yet the political undertones are
unmistakable, suggesting systems of menacing control. Rathna
Ramanathan's art and design invoke well-known icons, styles and
genres of early 20th Century western and Russian art and craft to
make a compelling argument about freedom of expression. This
handsome hand, silkscreen-printed edition recreates the brilliant
conceptual art of the book, with ink, line and paper combining to
add depth and texture to every page.
