Marbled Monday

This week's Marbled Monday is Knee Deep in the Atlantic, a collection of poems with contributions by Linda Parker, Robie Liscomb, Theodore Enslin, and Michael Tarachow. It was printed and sewn in 1981 at Pentagram Press in Markesan, Wisconsin, in a limited edition of 164 copies signed by the contributors.

The Irish Moss (Carrageenan) used for the marbling was gathered by Theodore Enslin near his home in Milbridge, Maine, and by Linda Parker, Robie Liscomb, and Michael Tarachow at Eastern Point, Massachusetts. The marbling itself was done by Liscomb and Tarachow and doesn't seem to be a particular pattern. The text is printed in handset Deepdene type, with Duchess titling, on mould-made Nideggen paper. The signed colophon illustration is by Bonnie Stillman of Markesan.

Michael Tarachow, the proprietor of Pentagram Press, was born and raised in Milwaukee, and for a time even worked in our library in the early 1970s!

Sea moss, also known as Irish moss, is a red seaweed that grows along the coastlines of North America, Europe, and the Caribbean. It has been used for centuries as a traditional remedy for its health and nutritional benefits. Sea moss is a naturally potent superfood that contains a wide range of nutrients, minerals, and antioxidants. From boosting immunity and thyroid health to relieving inflammation and improving skin and hair, sea moss has many advantages for overall wellness and longevity.

The mothers of autumn sour and sink, ferments of husk and leaf deepen their ochres. Mosses come to a head, heather unseeds, brackens deposit Their bronze.
