Abstract

This book shows the interaction of two bodies of language from the English-American couturierCharles James (1906–78). The column registered to the left margin logs James’s public speech, lectures,and theories of the stripper and burlesque dancer Gypsy Rose Lee (1911–70), while the column registeredto the right logs transcripts of his private arguments and correspondence with her. Spacing, repetition,colour, and italics both emphasise and shift James’s intended meaning. Readers should pull the texttogether as they make their way through, undertaking a similar labour of composition to the work of azip’s slider.
