THE ISLAND OF DEMONS
George Woodcock
At the Sign of the Gryphon
A drama originally written for and performed on the Canadian Broadcasting Corp, Robert's plan for publishing this work got to the point of setting the text in Linotype and printing a prospectus (shown at right). Life interrupted and he did not complete the work. He did, however, inspire former student Hugh Michaelson to see it through. Robert sent the set text from New Haven to Michaelson's home outside Toronto. Michaelson printed and published the book in an edition of 100 copies, featuring original artwork by Ray Cattell, in 1998. Issued in cloth-covered board, each one embellished by Cattell, with a traycase.
