Essay "Against Metaphor" by Gidal, with eight original gravures On Metaphor by Thérèse Oulton. 75 pages. Hand-printed letterpress at Dawes Press, Fournier Old Face 185 on Zerkall Neutral paper, bound in quarter leather and linen by Sangorski and Sutcliffe. Edition of 50, each signed by author and artist, made as a gift for friends, a few copies for sale. (Copies in the collections of the British Museum, the Victoria and Albert Museum, and the artists books collection of the New York Public Library, amongst others.) A copy went by hand via friend biographer Jim Knowlson to Samuel Beckett late in life at his care home (whiskey and Dante still in place), resulting in "permission granted" (in red ink, carefully written, SB s usually illegible scrawl anything but) for Oulton to choose five or six of his poems for a mooted future artist-book with her contiguous etchings. So far not undone.
