Spider's Nest within the Shadow of Soma
SN
Mike CastroFirst published 19971 editions

POETRY & ART BOOK. 8-1/2" x 11". Saddle stapled bound. Front and back color covers with B&W interior leaves, together making 48 [-- "unpaginated" --] pages. A metric [-- iambic --] montage. Visual -- op[tical illusional] -- poetry. Modernist (Imagist) Poetry cut into halftone-pixelated photomontage of the 16 plates of Giovanni Battista Piranesi's "Fantastic Prisons" commingled with pixie squatters blocked into a cascading tessellation of phantasmagorical cells. Feverish delirium lay ruin.
