* Description: A meditation on the eponymous Tarot card, Two of Pentacles is a book of ever-changing juxtapositions. Each printed copy of the book is uniquely generated and shuffled such that each two-page spread resembles a freshly drawn spread of cards. Its poetic "cards" draw unexpected connections between the legend of Narcissus, Tarot, botnets, the Bible, and language itself.
Two of Pentacles is the first in the Nothing to Say series of “dynamic books” where each copy is uniquely generated and printed.
