The Book as a Unit of Composition by bpNichol with Frank Davey. A brief extract, biographical note, and photograph of bp. "To compose books of poetry rather than individual poems which may later be gathered into book shape is to accept from the beginning of the writing not only a large-scale and longterm task but also the partial directing of one's writing by the book that one has undertaken."
