"Cle Hills be holy in Shropshire" - John Leland (ca. 1503-1552)
This new pamphlet is sort of a follow-up to my book WHERE? and sort of a stab in the dark at how to squish together historical texts (newspapers, books, folklore), diary fragments, and images (collages mostly) to evoke a sense of being in a place that is very hard to know. Fragmentary texts, pictures, hinting at something but not quite saying it. It emerged from a series of walks taken on Titterstone Clee, and a period of archive research, both of which were made possible by a Research Investment Scheme grant from the University of the West of England. 48pp.
RIYL: W.G. Sebald, Weird Walk, Folklore, all that psychogeography stuff, local history, big hills.
Printed nice and fancy by Taylor Bros (Bristol). Gold foil stamped title on Colorplan Mid Green 270gsm cover, inners on Munken Polar Rough 150gsm.
