Also included are several poems set in the Pennine countryside where Blake grew up, as well as the controversial tour-de-force ‘The Ballad of the Yorkshire Ripper’. Each book is stamped with silver foil onto a quality dark grey cloth and is wrapped with a striking transfilm half jacket and has been signed and numbered by the author.
