The types are Monotype American Garamond and Univers printed by letterpress on Revere an Italian mould-made paper.

The edition is limited to 300 numbered copies for sale of which 50 copies are reserved for the Aurora Theatre Company and 26 lettered copies for complimentary distribution. All copies are signed by the playwright. "A Delicate Balance" is the newest work in the Arion Press drama series honoring one of America’s great contemporary playwrights Edward Albee. The edition features four illustrations by Tom Holland an acclaimed artist and friend of the playwright. <br /> <br /> A mature couple Agnes and Tobias he recently retired lead upper-middle-class lives of quiet desperation. They reside in a Northeastern suburb where servants still cook dinner the country club plays a major role and living room bars are always well stocked. They have to deal with what appear to be four permanent unwanted house guests. David Littlejohn in his perceptive introduction asks: "By what verbal and imaginative magic does Albee manage to transform stories as mean and vicious as these relationships so full of contentiousness and spite into profound and moving theatrical experiences In his stage directions Albee specifically calls Tobias’s long near-hysterical self-contradictory third-act outburst in front of Harry his 'best friend' and life invader an 'aria'. Throughout it he provides dynamic and tonal advice in the manner of a composer or conductor - phrases all in capital letters semicolons and dashes ellipsis dots exclamation points and question marks often together - and stage directions that are the equivalent of a composer's marginal notations." <br /> <br /> There are three illustrations in the book and one on the front cover. These are reproductions of watercolors printed digitally and tipped into and onto the book. As Littlejohn writes in his introduction: "Drinking as Tom Holland’s illustrations suggest plays a large part in this play - almost as large a part as in Albee's Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf I count about twenty-three glasses of hard liquor onstage in 'A Delicate Balance' plus Agnes's reference to good wine at dinner." Tom Holland has made abstract images of bottles and glasses that appear at the beginnings of the three acts and an abstraction of a house for the cover. These cunning watercolors look like stained glass windows with sunlight shining through.<br /> <br /> ___POSTAGE: International customers please note that additional postage may apply as the standard does not always cover costs; please inquire for details.<br /> <br /> ___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to be a member of the ABAA ILAB and IOBA and we stand behind every book we sell.
