As new at the published price. Electric Tulips 5.1 was conceived as a dialogue between an imaginary literary critic Gallo and the poet Gallo and revolves around the writing and presentation of his poem Electric Tulips 5.1. The essay which results Future Preterite by the esteemed critic Alessandro S. Stompanado is intended to emulate that of the essay by James Joyce written under the pseudonym Vladimir Dixon; and which appeared in the Sylvia Beach publication of 1929: Our Exagmination Round His Factification for Incamination of Work in Progress in which Joyce writes an appreciation of his own novel Ulysses. As such the book is a multi-layered pastiche of both literary and typographic treatments along with a magnificent double gatefold presentation of the poem in eight colors each of the seven stanzas in a separate color and the seminal tulip in an eighth; the type all set by hand and printed letterpress and polymer from Permanent Headline Open from the now defunct foundry Ludwig & Mayer. <br/><br/> privately printed unknown books
