Colophon: "Depression Dog is the 128th thin volume from The Perishable Press Limited the eleventh collaboration of author and printer. Ten here in the countryside and one at the once-great university via a seminar which produced READING in 1992. Makeshift it to say that the author's 'segmented loopin' shown in that book became the aegis-engine and raison d'etre of this one."Inadvertently, the project went fallow while the publisher luxuriously read books all day, every day, for the first six months of 2002, then shamelessly segued to a mad assemblaging of objets trouves for the next five! We finish in time for the author's arrival on Thursday the 93rd day of this year."Toby Olson is an American writer based in Pennsylvania.
