There are more than twenty of these fascinating little woodcuts in this book. Some are almost abstract and some naive. It does require a closer look to take in and appreciate the shapes and rhythm within each piece. I have to post some more in the future. I've never come accross Edward Nolan's work before and found no information on the internet but I do hope to see some of his work in the flesh one day - maybe even buy some... Meanwhile this book represents the best 50p I've ever spent.

Yes, I love these too. I have my mothers copy of the anthology and as I child was always fascinated by the small pictures that run throughout the book. I too cannot find Edward Nolan anywhere else sadly
