AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

"246 Little Clouds", Collected Works, Volume 17: Reconstruction of the book published by Something Else Press, 1968.
Limited edition of 1000 copies.
Introduction by the American poet Emmett Williams.
The main text of the book was written by Roth during a cargo voyage from New York to Iceland, his country of origin, and then sent to E. Williams.
Perfect condition.

No shipping to the United States due to the new legislation.

In 1969, Roth began planning the series "Collected Works," a self-published twenty-volume catalog raisonné that would contain, collect, classify, organize, and document a large portion of the work he had accomplished to date.
A testament to his ongoing drive toward accumulation, the complete works reveal the duality of his approach, both chaotic and organized.
The books were not published in order and did not present the artist's work chronologically, but all were the same size, thus enabling economical reuse of the printer's materials.
