If you’re inspired by the reading you may want to visit
Book Arts & Special Collections Center on the 6th floor to examine our fine press edition of
TANGO DE LA CICATRIZ – EPIGRAMA DE FIN DE SIGLO. It features a poem by
Juvenal Acosta and monoprints by
Gustavo Ramos Rivera which have been described as a "palimpsest of apparitions on handmade paper." The introduction is by Alberto Blanco. We own copy number 3 of the 11 Spanish editions printed by
Peter Rutledge Koch of Berkeley.
Vamp & Tramp Booksellers has more information about this beautiful book on their site.
