Scope and Contents

The poems in this book all show a hand with a slip of paper with a concrete poetic image between the thumb index finger, possibly a take on Wallace Berman's Verifax collages. On the back cover, it is stated that Billy Mavreas is a Canadian cartoonist and artist living in Montreal, Quebec, whose mostly silent or wordless comics revolve around the themes of language, sexuality and spirituality. He is the co-founder of Expozine, one of Canada's largest and most well respected small press fairs, as well as the curator and resident-at-large of Monastiraki, a shop and gallery of wonders in Mile End. Mavreas has also been active in the international mail-art network contributing visual poetry and graphics to many projects under the name EHEL. He continues to explore many creative outlets including vocal experimentation, installation and lately has been leading creative roundtable workshops for kids and adults. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
