Gunnesch, Stefan: Ein Brief The book transfers the prose work The Letter of Lord Chandos by Hugo von Hofmannsthal into a typographical interpretation, compared with a series of black-and-white collages. The text is introduced by a large typography that displays text fragments of Hofmannsthal’s letter. The words seem to fall apart on the pages; they are not quite tangible, similar to how Lord Chandos addresses the loss of his linguistic expression in the letter. The complete text is set in a small typography on the following pages. The size of the type area is based on the dimensions of a folded letter paper.
