Several poems are spread across the pages in the fashion of Mallarme's "Un Coup de Des" or the calligrams of Apollinaire. Many of the concrete poems are characterized by fragmented words or absence of spacing between words. The dedication is written in a distinctive calligraphic style in black and red inks. There are nine circles outlined in black ink from 3.5-9.5 cm diameter scattered throughout the book of which four are filled in with colored inks and one is cut out from the page. The book was in James Baldwin's library in St. Paul de Vence. Pritchard was born in 1939 and died in 1996. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
