A new, unread book in excellent condition. Full red cloth boards with gilt titles and pasted-down illustration. Gray linen endpapers. Text in Japanese. 6"w x 9"h. 126 pages. A collection of the pop surrealist master's work. "Blending themes of pop culture with techniques reminiscent of the old masters, Mark Ryden has created a singular style that blurs the traditional boundaries between high and low art.

Ryden has trumped the initial surrealist strategies by choosing subject matter loaded with cultural connotation." [Ryden website]
