Description

[Santa Monica, California]: Peter Norton Family, 1997. First Edition, First Printing, 1/4000 copies. Hardcover. Square Octavo, unpaginated. In Very Good condition. Bound in publisher's burgundy bonded leather, Blind-stamped titling to spine and device to front board. Illustrated throughout with pop-up silhouettes by Walker alongside her text. One cloud pop-up with small crease. Lacking Christmas card. Shelved case 11. "'Freedom, a Fable' is an illustrated artist's book with text and pop-up silhouettes. At first glance it appears to be a nineteenth-century children's book, but it is decidedly not. It tells the story of a female slave whose life after emancipation veers far from her dreams of meritocracy, revealing that Freedom, a Fable is not just the title of the work but is also the lesson to be learned" [National Gallery of Art]. 1380450.
