For the National Art Library and its audiences, it will be a useful contemporary example of an artist-poet original-print-illustrated book, that can be interestingly compared with classic examples from the earlier 20th century ...

This looks exquisite. Personally speaking, I remember Sub Songs very well, ... and this looks a very interesting and beautiful composite response to those texts.

Book Review

A glowing review from Bath Spa University

"Bath Spa University is delighted and honoured to hold one of the copies of ON READING J.H.PRYNNE'S SUB SONGS in our library’s Special Collection. The book is a beautifully produced work of collaboration; a perfect marriage of John James’ poetry, Bruce McLean’s prints and Bridget Heal’s design. Both Bridget and Ivor Heal are alumni of our Bath Academy of Art at Corsham, and this unique and exquisite book will be an inspiration to students and staff across a range of disciplines."
