GIVE AWAY


I'm very pleased to announce a giveaway of a copy of our latest chapbook from Pania Press - Northland by Michele Leggott. The book contains five lyric poems and an afterword by the author and is from a numbered edition of 75 copies. The text is printed on ivory coloured cardstock with chocolate brown liner card. Each copy is handstitched with forest green thread and covered in a decorative dustjacket with a gorgeous leafy print that reminded me of the lush terrain of Northland. The art historian in me couldn't resist making a little visual pun on McCahon's Northland Panels with the quirky labels on the cover.


To be in to win just leave a comment below and I'll draw the name of the lucky winner on Friday 24 September.

Please Note: If you don't have a Google account you can still enter the draw by choosing the anonymous comment option. As your comment won't lead me back to a blog or website be sure to leave your name in your message so that I can put your name in the hat!

Enjoy the rest of your week!

This looks like a gorgeous book Bronwyn. I am besotted with Bookmaking,and have been for just over two years now. It would be an honour to own one of yours. I love poetry, and we had to learn many , many poems at school. I am at present making an Altered Book about the poems I had to learn.
The rest of your 'Works' look amazing too!

A beautifully designed and executed work. I'm sure Michele Leggott must be delighted to have her work incorporated so appropriately and exquisitely.

You show a great variety and they all look fascinating. I do love the Pop Ups.
Have you seen the Holloway Press book of Michele Leggott's poems?

Your books look stunning! I would love to see one close up - especially one designed to reflect Michele Leggot's Northland poetry. Thank you for posting the pictures.

Look at all these people shamelessly commenting to try to win a free book! Shame! Fie! (betwixt you and me - 'They all have huge incomes..' ): I, ("pauvre moi)", of course, have a deep appreciation of this wonderful culture you are promulgating Bronwyn.

Seriously: I really like Michelle Leggot's poetry - deep and intense language use - always a great joie de vie and energy also.

The book looks great of craft.
