Book Description
On the Face of it is a collection of poems written in three intermittent bursts over a ten-year-period. All of these were spontaneous outpourings of words, emotions, if you please. Some were furiously scribbled on scraps of papers, others composed desultorily on a cellphone. The publication of this anthology marks the end of a chapter in the life of the writer--that of penning poems.

Book Description
In the Face of It is part of a series of three Artists’ Books that represent three stages of an artistic journey in the years 1995-2006 exploring the dialectic of mark, word and image. A recurrent theme in each is that of surprise. In The Face of It recounts an unexpected shift in 1995 from the earlier visual poetry in The Poetry of It(2013), into pictorial art itself. In works like Another Rilke, a series of figurative prints termed 'Art Noir' begun in pursuit of self-knowledge became a vehicle for the maker’s self-identification as an artist and conception of such works as portraiture. The three books show how working through these stages in visual art was a condition for the spacial writing and reading of both sound and silence in my it to you (2013), The Book of It (2010) as well as In The Face of It (2013).

Book Description
Like an elegantly chilling postscript to The Metamorphosis, this classic of postwar Japanese literature describes a bizarre physical transformation that exposes the duplicities of an entire world. The narrator is a scientist hideously deformed in a laboratory accident–a man who has lost his face and, with it, his connection to other people. Even his wife is now repulsed by him. His only entry back into the world is to create a mask so perfect as to be undetectable. But soon he finds that such a mask is more than a disguise: it is an alternate self–a self that is capable of anything. A remorseless meditation on nature, identity and the social contract, The Face of Another is an intellectual horror story of the highest order.
