Frederic Prokosch (1906 - 1989) was an American writer of novels, poetry, memoirs, and criticism as well as a distinguished translator. Joseph D'Ambrosio (1934 -2009) was an American artist and binder. He left a career in engineering to pursue a new career in making artist’s books. He wrote, set type, printed designs, did the artwork and the binding. His books were considered works of art and were signed and numbered similar to limited edition fine art prints. D’Ambrosio also produced many broadside posters on fine papers that were issued in conjunction with his book projects and for special events. This beautifully creative little book is an excursion into magic realism.
