LANES. 1969.

Dunsyre: Wild Hawthorn Press, 1969

21.1 x 9cm, 30pp. Card covers with printed dust wrapper. Artist’s book with two small drawings by Margot Sandeman. Each page has a two word poem printed in red and green based on combinations of the words Red, Roof, Wild, Rose, Blown, Tile until the last two words when the word White is added. There is a tale of sorts – the building has a red roof and it is blown away, a red rose is also replaced by a white rose. In some manner the petals of a rose are compared with a roof of a house.
