This remarkable edition presents Williams’s spare, intense sequence that responds to the politics of interrogation and power—evoking the painting Interrogation by Leon Golub and holding a mirror to the reader’s own gaze. Letterpress printed by CBA on hand-marketed Nepalese papers, the hand-sewn binding and oblong format lend the work an immediate presence on the shelf and in the hand. With a cover of dark grey and teal Nepali paper, and interior pages in various colors, the physical book becomes a witness to its own subject­matter: structure, restraint, and the weight of what remains unsaid. 

Each copy of this edition was limited to 150 signed and numbered copies. Collectors of book arts and serious poetry alike will find in Interrogation II a compelling intersection of literary urgency and craft object—an edition where every line and every pull of type is part of a larger act of bearing witness. Ideal for the shelf of a poetry lover, a print-shop resident, or the book arts enthusiast who treasures the weight and meaning of hand-crafted voice.

C.K. Williams judged the 2004 Chapbook Competition.

Letterpress printed and hand bound by Roni Gross in an edition of 150.
