Vancouver: New Star Books, 2005. First Edition. 8vo. 102pp. Perfect bound into wrappers. New. This book by Donato Mancini just arrived in the shoppe and all I can say is this is one of the most interesting and original items I've seen in a long time. No, for real. Totally. So shut up and buy it. We can talk about it later.

Ligatures is a splendid read, a wake-up call to both the eyes and the brain. Conceptually urbane, yet with all the mischief of a Situationist hornbook, it launches an energetic and dazzlingly varies sortie into the labyrinth of letters. --Steve McCaffery

For some, language is the plate upon which wirds are served. For others, it is the meat, bread and vegetables. How exciting to look through a book like Ligatures, to see and read how meals are made. Fromlanguage, no less. In a post-poetry world, Mancini's a master chef. --Michael Turner
