Onglet by Coracle Press
"Elaboration and demonstration of the term onglet with much hand-finishing as the only means of production. Companion volume to the earlier eclogues, but the metaphoric structure of the book works here as a more linear device." - Coracle Press:
The French onglet receives a Simon Cutts and Coracle treatment – as a single-leaf cancel, a tab or thumb index, a guard, a miter joint or box, a thumbnail groove, the unguis of a petal, [his mother's] embroidery thimble, and a hanger steak. In Printed in Norfolk: Coracle Publications 1989-2012 John Bevis refers to onglet as "playful" and "a unique testament of crazy logic."
