Little Sparta: Wild Hawthorn Press, 1995
12 x 8.8cm, 4pp. Artist’s card with two drawings front and back by Gary Hincks after texts by Bridgey Penney (A Catch of Poems about the Shipping Forecast) and Homer’s Odyssey (Book XI) – the first drawing shows two boats, one of which is named Morning Star (the name of son Eck Finlay’s small press) against a sunrise and the second an oar sunk into the ground as a form of monument. The first has the text BILLOWS PILLOWS under it and the second BILLOW WINNOW. The “pillows” of the first are nets and folded sails being caught by the wind, and the second similar pair of words meaning the wind through grass. VG+.
