Scope and Contents
This is a page from the manuscript for the only typewritten, concrete poetry book published in South Africa. Boshoff achieved optical effects by weighting the density of typewritten letters in different portions of the poem through overtyping and creating diagonals by placement of the same letter in that direction. Includes an optical effects poem in a circular shape achieved by formating typewritten fragments in the manner of Houedard. Missing page 87.

During its short existence it focused on printing alternative Afrikaans literature. The book comprises black and white reproductions...
