Tender Buttons Final









In the same way
that Gertrude Stein
questions
the arbitrary of the reader
to understand the
English language,
I arranged chosen poems
from the book
tender buttons
to reflect her approach
through the principles of
fragmentation .
The layout encourages
the reader to take in
each piece
in different directions
while maintaining
legibility and meaning.
The most prominent
letter on
each page
corresponds with
the title found on the
contents page.
The type is set in officina.
