| "The present work is a sort of lyrical diary, simple and personal. It it is, perhaps, less overwhelming than the huge MUNDUNCULUM, less 'far-out' than the concrete poems, it is also perhaps more accessible and a more suitable introduction to the work of the fascinating Icelandic Swiss chimera. In its own right, however, the CLOUDS shows Rot (Roth) as book designer, and is therefore an appropriate indication of the scope of the man's work." (from the dust jacket notes)
"246 little clouds is one of the strangest Christmas stories ever told. Cloudy, yes, but it is a happy book, lyrical & full of light & hope & love, though you will search through it in vain for the likes of Little Mary Sunshine, The Beaming Boy, & The Friendly Carpenter." Emmett Williams (from the introduction) |
