I Heard it Through the Grapevine

ASA Benveniste and Trigram Press

af Jeremy Reed, m.fl.

Asa Benveniste (1925-1990) who founded the Trigram Press in London in 1965, ostensibly to publish Anglo-American cutting-edge poetry, was not only a self-taught, one-off maverick genius as a printer, typographer and book-designer, but also a superbly innovative language poet, whose own poetry tended to be obscured by his merits as a publisher.
