The binding reflects the style and techniques proposed for Ficciones including a linear cover design, leather doublure and flyleaf, blind tooling throughout, bound in the French technique. The design is the journey from nothing to nothing on the cycle of life, a waltz with the “four stars of virtue.”

]]>https://bridwell.omeka.net/items/show/2065The two shades of calf represent two colors of skin. Moser plates will be pressed into the dampened lighter calf to make the images. The red leather inlay is the Mississippi. Red is blood and race which branches like the story. The line disappears on the back cover, the “West,” where Huck goes at the end of the book. The author will take us there. The only word on the binding is the blind tooled “Cairo,” Jim’s goal. The story is told by Huck, but it is Jim’s story. The endpapers are the river churned by a paddlewheeler.]]>2022-11-26T12:54:31-05:00
]]>https://bridwell.omeka.net/items/show/2063The description of the raft and life on the river, as Huck and Jim floated downstream, called to Peter Thomas' creative imagination.The book will be bound as a raft-like structure. He had previously explored the concept of binding unsewn books by rolling the sections and using those cylinders as architectural elements of the book structure. Thomas realized that these ideas could be further explored in a binding of Huckleberry Finn, as the cylinders could be made to resemble the logs of a raft.]]>2022-11-26T12:54:31-05:00
]]>https://bridwell.omeka.net/items/show/2061Black Harmatan goatskin, with colored leather onlays used for the design of the riverboat and raft.
