Bookseller Notes

'Inclusion in this series, 'The Engraver's Cut', is a daunting compliment. It involves Sebastian Carter's printing of my blocks, which I greatly look forward to. It also carries various implications - cutting the pack? re-editing the movie? dealing a hand? The best of them may be the opportunity for establishing a benchmark for the future.' (Brett, Autobiographical Note)
