An artist's book. The entire text consists of ten nonsensical combinations of words, one on each leaf.
"Googled English Frontier books consist of 2- and 3-word combinations that bring up no results when searched on Google ... Each book contains 10 of the word combinations turned up by the project, stamped on a variety of weighty, archival papers"--Artist's statement on Vamp & Tramp Booksellers website.
"Hand-stamped text using hand-set rubber type. Bound in Japanese side-sewn style traditionally used for ledgers and account books. Available with red, black, or black and white script covers"--Bookseller's website.
