Summary
"Last Day in Kas" gathers the temporal and particular within the poignancy of a last day. As a form of distilled life, the book is linked through a sideways looking and walking. Places of delineated boundary and shifting ambiguity between display and protection, attraction and rebuff are negotiated through a light, touching and yielding eye. The hand as expression of primary intelligence and articulation is evoked in hand wrought ironwork, tangible objects, tended flowers and touchable textures. With the turning of pages and dappled interplay between image, print and paper the reader's eye are actively engaged in this giving and receiving to ponder the meaning of gift. -- Vamp & Tramp Booksellers website (viewed Mar. 21, 2011).
