HCSHR 3:11 — Bob Butkus, whimstickles

 HCSHR 3:11 — Bob Butkus, whimstickles. Profound Press, 2013. 4 ¼” x 5 ½”, 40 pp, saddle-stitched. 5$. bobbutkus@yahoo.ca

Bob Butkus's whimstickles are from several years ago. Or perhaps they are from a lifetime ago. When times were easier.

 

I mention that because these days, even though we’re starting to open up, as they refer to it somewhat euphemistically, there still remains a need of small delights that can provoke a little light laughter.

This small saddle-stitched chapbook contains forty-one of Bob Butkus’s whimstickle looks at the how of words, in alphabetical order.
