Further information:
FUEGO translates FIRE. "Central to this volume are photographs of burning book pages on which is printed a passage from Tatjana Tolstaja's novel 'Kys'. The photographs are offset printed and then overprinted letterpress with the same Tolstja text." (p. 166) "The fire motif is already implied by the cover. Flames in soft nuances of gray pass onto orange endpapers, followed by a bland black page, to then pass into the color photograph of a burning book page." (p. 74) (from the catalogue)
