Bookseller Notes

A beautiful production - the crisp detail of the engravings printed from the 'exquisitely cut' blocks, which Lawrence took considerable pains to borrow from the National Library of Scotland and the National Library of Wales, is exceptional. The additional prints here include 'Tree Frog, 1929', and 'Blackberries & Death's Head Hawk Moth, probably cut for, but not used in The Saturday Book.' (All around the Block, Fleece Press [bibliography], 2023)
