Fine.

A remarkable achievement, ‘a twenty-first century Liber Chronicarum spanning the totality, from Genesis to the *Apocalypse’* (Peter Koch) by one of the leading printer / book artists of the present day.

Combining the text of the Book of Genesis, fragments from Ecclesiastes, The Apocalypse of St. John, William Temple Horniday’s The Extermination of the American Bison and The Effects of Nuclear Weapons, Koch weaves a deeply personal story which is no less than a history of the present moment, seen through ‘the core-texts of our perception, the lenses through which we interpret our culture and our nature’ (Peter Koch). The separately issued key volume provides a page by page decryption of Peter Koch’s meaning, composed of striking and often shocking juxtapositions of intellectual heights with ‘the swamp in which we are mired—an ever-present, existential, war-riven, and increasingly poisoned world.’ (Peter Koch).
