Riverdale CA: Bo Press, 2019. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. Hardcover. Limited Edition of 10 copies (not numbered as issued) and signed by the book artist. Designed, printed, and bound by Pat Sweet. A Scottish traditional song, often sung after the parting of friends. "This old Scottish song goes back to 1770, at least in part. The song was rediscovered and made popular by the Clancy Brothers in 1959. The song is tremendously sad, and it's tempting to think of it as a mourning song, but it was traditionally sung to a guest, sitting on his horse, drinking something that would ward off the chill on the way home. But the song has a powerful sense of 'goodbye forever', and if so, the song is blithe and brave in the face of ending, the song of someone who does not welcome death but does not fear it. If the wish to 'make a good end' still exists, this song embodies it. I've paired the lines of the song with black and white images of disregard, tiny deaths: the sadness of small things, the worn out and the cut down, the desiccated and the thrown away. It puts our own partings in perspective" (Pat Sweet). Illustrated with the artist's photographs. Bound in patterned white and black paper covered boards with black leather spine, paper title label to spine, and title label to front board. Split to binding in interior. [82 pages.] Book size: about 2.75 x 2.25 inches. MINI/080724.
