Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Some plants have sustained empires and sparked wars. Some have ignited public outrage. Think tea, opium, tulips and thistles. Yes, thistles. In 1852 South Australia passed its Thistle Act, probably the first weed control legislation anywhere in the world. The word 'thistle' refers to a large and widespread group of plants. Several hundred species within the Asteraceae family, plus a bunch of other plants we call thistles even though technically, botanically, they're not. Google 'thistles' and many of the sites will tell you how to get rid of them. Dig a little deeper, however, and from this weedy territory other narratives begin to emerge.Part accidental memoir, part environmental history, and part exploration of the performative voice on the page, The Book of Thistles is about the cultural and social life of this group of plants we call thistles.

Signed
Eleven gate-folded pages bound concertina-style, illustrated with coloured linocuts by Mike Hudson; demy folio; within floral patterned purple cloth box with printed paper title label inlaid on the lid, purple ribbon tie and yellow cloth sides; The Wayzgoose Press, Katoomba, NSW, 2006. Edition limited to 30 numbered copies (25 are for sale), signed by the author and publishers Mike Hudson and Jadwiga Jarvis; this being copy number 17 of 21 thus bound. *With the original prospectus, slightly marked, loosely inserted. Conceived, designed and illustrated with multi-coloured linocuts by Mike Hudson and hand set in a variety of types by Jadwiga Jarvis. The linocuts were extra coloured by hand, making each copy in the edition unique. The pages unfold to a total length of 5 metres. Loosely inserted is a printed instruction sheet: Some helpful hints on how best to read/view Dorothy Lamour's life as a phrase book. The book is a typographic rendition of Janaczewska's play of the same title, in which the screen actress 'finds herself in a poem instead of a movie' [Introduction]. Jadwiga Jarvis (The Wayzgoose Affair, p. 175) explained the format: 'In order to maintain the spirit of a performance, we gave the book a theatrical setting: the hotel room which appears on every one of the 11 gate-fold pages, was Dorothy's stage. Onto this stage various scenarios obliquely suggested by the text were introduced . a chessboard, a maze, a giant pineapple, a clapperboard and an overweight Ronald McDonald. The introduction and colophon pages featured the same room/stage, but on these the set was empty and shown as if unlit, alluding to the characteristic hiatus of a theatrical presentation before curtain-up and after the final curtain'.
