Living Room

Winner of the APR/Honickman First Book Prize

Geoff Bouvier

In Living Room, boxes of typeface materialize from white space—literal boxes with proportions and corners where visitors might recline comfortably, or discover they're trapped. Each piece brims with industry and restless attention, and the dramas they contain are manifold. In style and substance, Living Room enacts the urgency one feels to stretch out against cramped quarters of any dimensions. Acoustic, evocative, Bouvier's multi-layered writing unsettles perimiters: the margins of the page and the limits of cognition.
