Walden marginalia; the contents of a dozen shanties
- Artist:
- Amelia Bird
This artist’s book examines margin notes found in 12 copies of Walden, while providing commentary on the reading habits of strangers, assumptions about nature writing and learning, and the lingering effects of Thoreau’s classic work. By withholding the original text to focus solely on these marks, Walden Marginalia turns the same kind of close attention Thoreau inspired in his readers onto the readers themselves. Letterpress printed, hard cover.
Out of print.
