Hide, a manuscript
$30.00
Rebecca Hawkes’ Hide is a poem like you haven’t seen before.
Presented on fourteen intricately illuminated A5 cards, held in a decorated sleeve, Hide is both a work of art and one of poetry.
In Hide, the embodied histories of book-making are bound in blood. The stories of a medieval mystic scribe and a modern shepherd's daughter span centuries in one illuminated poem.
Inspired by a riddle for the Tatwine Enigma that describes the transformation of a slain animal's hide into parchment that holds healing words, this chapbook contains both brutality and transcendent beauty.
Preordered copies will ship in early September.
