‎Godot: An Imaginary Staging by William T. Wiley of Waiting for Godot by Samuel Beckett with En Attendant / Waiting for Godot‎

‎San Francisco / New York: The Arion Press / Grove Press 2006. Limited Edition. Hardcover. Fine. Wiley William T. Artist book: Number 68 of 300 elephant folio size 67 pp. signed by William T. Wiley with prospectus and invitation to the publication party. Trade book: octavo size 365 pp. Samuel Beckett 1906-1989 is considered one of the last modernist writers and a key figure in what is known as the "Theatre of the Absurd." Winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature 1969 most of us are aware of Beckett and "Godot"; however as the prospectus states "his works still cry out for explanations - explanations that Beckett himself adamantly refused to give". For anyone who has been grappling with this explanation this wonderful artist's book will shed new light: it is not the play it is ABOUT the play. Andrew Hoyem designed the artist's book to illuminate the play itself which is why it was published with the trade bi-lingual edition which we also offer here. This artist's book was published in honor of the hundredth anniversary of the birth of Beckett the Irish avant-garde novelist playwright poet and translator. American artist William T. Wiley uses wordplay and visual puns to carry the reader deeper still into irreverence with fifty colour plates each with five lines of text beneath which offer a synopsis of the play or with stage directions. The artist book should be read with the play itself; it is a book written out of love and admiration by a loyal aficionado of Beckett's plays. ___DESCRIPTION: Artist book bound with blue cloth backstrip yellow paper spine label with black lettering yellow paper sides imprinted with images by Wiley fifty prints made from photopolymer plates three for each: the black line and the blue and yellow tints two prints in black only frontispiece and tailpiece; Century Expanded type partially handset Hahnem�hle linen paper elephant folio size 15.5" by 10 3/8" 1-4 5-65 66 1 colophon pp. limited edition this number 68 of 300 copies signed by William T. Wiley. The slipcase is designed to match the book with the same blue cloth on the edges the same spine label the two sides covered in the same yellow paper; however the lettering is a wordplay on the palindrome "To Dog Godot" which is surrounded by a field of potatoes. Loosely laid in are the prospectus for the book a single sheet folded once for printing folded in half for mailing information about the book on the front and back pages sample pages with illustrations on the two inner pages measuring just under 15" by just under 10"; and a small card invitation to the publication party to be held on December 18 2006. Accompanying the artist book is a trade publication by the Grove Press of "Waiting for Godot" presented in both French and English bound in glossy paper over boards black along the shelfback and grey on both boards black white and blue lettering a notice tipped onto the front pastedown that this copy accompanies the Arion Press artist book black endpapers octavo size 9.25" by 6.25" pagination: i-iv v-viii 1-3 4-357. ___CONDITION: Artist book fine overall internally bright and free of prior owner markings text block is tight and square with solid hinges covers are clean corners are straight and unrubbed; a minute abrasion to the paper of the back board where it meets the cloth overall a fine copy.
