Beschreibung

Beautifully designed and printed chapbook consisting of an essay presented at the Friends of the Libraries "Literary Voices" event at UW in 2006. Dr. Charles Johnson (b. 1948) Johnson started his career as a political cartoonist, became professor of English at UW in 1976, and won the National Book Award in fiction forMiddle Passagein 1990. This essay is quite prescient, paying tribute to libraries for their role in Johnson's success as a writer, but also discussing the relationship between libraries and democracy, and the historic trend of the withholding of information from the common man. The book was designed by Jenny Wilkinson and letterpress printed by students of the School of Visual Concepts. 21x13cm, [2], 15, [1]pp. Signed by Johnson at the colophon. Printed in two colors, vignette illustrations by Carl Montford. Red string bound gray paper wrappers with French flaps. Fine condition First edition limited to 100 copies, this being 61.
