‎Song Of The Line‎

‎Horse & Buggy Press Durham: 2007. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. A medley of amusing thoughtful and skillful work by a poet and an engraver. The poems are what's chipped off from the collision of mind and heart with the world.; if some are funny they are seriously funny. The engravings by the master painter Fantazos were made on copper plates in the old way. They depict visual puns and comic mysteries - complex imaginative and rich in detail. "If art proves anything one might say that this collection proves that art is fun eccentricity abound love is complicated good things exist. Henryk and Jack are artists in te school of Durer and Horace. - Annie Dillard from her opening introduction. Horse & Buggy Press, Durham: 2007 hardcover‎

‎BRONTE CHARLOTTE; EICHENBERG FRITZ. WOOD ENGRAVINGS‎

‎Jane Eyre‎

‎Random House New York: 1943. Hardcover no dustjacket. Reading copy. Cover has scratches and tears. Pages are discolored. Transmuted by the rare Bronte imagination the romance of Jane and Rochester takes on a strange and unforgettable atmosphere that lifts it above the level of mere melodrama. But Charlotte Bronte intended more. She portrayed the refusal of a spirited and intelligent woman to accept her appointed place in society with unusual frankness and with a passionate sense of the dignity and needs of her sex.
