The Colour Out of Space
Orange, Mass. Shelter Book Works, 2016. Amy Borezo. Fine Binding. Fine. Item #2039
The spectacular 2016 production of Lovecraft’s The Colour Out of Space printed and bound by Amy Borezo of Shelter Book Works. One of only 40 copies produced. Borezo accompanies the text with bright fluorescent imagery created through a paste paper technique that is overlayed with a geometric pattern from polymer plates. The colors shift and transition through the 56-page book, evoking the spread throughout the community and into the reservoir. The covers are decorated with a darked veined pattern that transitions to an orange florescent horizon divided by a suede leather spine. This edition used the authoritative Joshi text published by Hippocampus Press and is set in Caslon and printed letterpress on Zerkall paper. It is preceded by a new introduction by S. T. Joshi. This copy is number 19, signed by the artist, and housed in a custom box designed by Borezo and covered in silk cloth.
