Don't Go Where I Can't Follow #[nn]

The cover of this Drawn & Quarterly release says everything with quiet eloquence — a single Polaroid photograph of two people leaning close together, heads touching, captured in that intimate, sun-warmed way only a snapshot can manage. By Anders Nilsen (with Cheryl Weaver), this 2006 work carries an almost tender weight before you've even opened it. It's the kind of book whose cover alone draws you in and holds you there.
