Adelaide: The Experimental Art Foundation, 1989.
First Edition.

23cm x 17cm. 40 pages, black and white illustrations. Illustrated wrappers.

Experimental fiction by George Alexander with photography by Kurt Brereton and drawings by Piotr Olszanski. Sparagmos (from the ecstatic Greek ritual of dismemberment) brings together two texts: Ringing the Bell Backwards, an account of an artist friend’s suicide, and Roses for the Cutting, an analysis of love withdrawn – the love remembered, cauterized and remembered again.
