Folio. Approximately 6 1/2″ × 4 3/4″ (16.5 × 12.1 cm), printed as a single leaf folded once. Set in Bembo Roman by Jim Camp using type from the Antonia and Adam Petko Collection at Arizona State University. Published by the synaesthesia press.
Issued as a keepsake rather than a commercial publication and distributed in conjunction with the 2001 Arizona Book Fair. The publication contains a single poem, “The Wait,” by Arizona poet Michael Loney.
The Wait remains the sole publication in the synaesthesia press folio series. Conceived as a keepsake rather than a commercial publication, it reflects the press’s ongoing interest in handset typography, fine printing, and the enduring appeal of small literary artifacts.
