It's Fine Press Friday!
This week’s Fine Press Friday highlights another book from the estate of our late friend Dennis Bayuzick. Gabriel’s Family was created by Philadelphia artist and poet Claire Owen in 1992 at her Turtle Island Press in an edition of 52 copies signed by Owen and her collaborator Daniel Tucker. It tells the story of a stone cutter who creates beautiful, but grotesque creatures and eventually believes them to be a part of his family and a completion of himself. His solitude, however, is threatened by being evicted by the bishop, and events unfold from this predicament.
The images are relief etchings prints created by Owen herself. The presswork is by Art Larson of Horton Tank Graphics, in Hadley, Massachusetts. The text is set in Baskerville and the titling is done in Centaur. The book was bound in red Nigerian goatskin, with a brown spine, stamped in gold and white foil, by Daniel Kelm at Wide Awake Garage in Easthampton, Massachusetts. The story was originally published in The Painted Bride Quarterly of Philadelphia in fall of 1991.

And pity, like a naked newborn babe, Striding the blast, or heaven's cherubin horsed Upon the sightless couriers of the air, Shall blow the horrid deed in every eye, That tears shall drown the wind. (Macbeth, 1:7)
