This eighth instalment of BFTK is on letters and letters. It takes the double meaning of this word as its point of dispatch, inviting recipients to think through and respond to — directly and indirectly — ideas around correspondence, addressing and alphabets. What it means to be in correspondence \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003ewith\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e somebody, the initiation and continuation of this communicative exchange and what happens when it is severed or lost. How to write directly \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003etowards\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e a you, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eto\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e you; to a particular reader, object, locale. The volume is littered with letters. There are letters about letters, letters to letters, letters that crease, fold, tear and rip, letters that are sent and lost, found and read. There are letters that pile up, their combinations arranged and rearranged to form comprehensive linguistic logics, and there are letters that are simply letters. Contributions sit in eight-page signatures, of which there are twenty-six in total. Of the eight hundred bound copies, twenty-six are left unbound, returned to discrete correspondence, loose abécédaire units for exchange — letters to be leafed through and addressed once more.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout Bricks from the Kiln Magazine:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bricks from the Kiln is an independent publisher of books, editions and a somewhat yearly journal. Co-run by Matthew Stuart and Andrew Walsh-Lister between the UK and US, and founded in 2015, its output is largely concerned with explorative yet critically minded forms of writing and language sitting at the intersection of art, design and literature.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Central","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58112631570816,"sku":null,"price":15.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2009\/7115\/files\/BricksFromTheKiln_8.png?v=1779115042","url":"https:\/\/unitom.co.uk\/products\/bricks-from-the-kiln-8","provider":"UNITOM","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
