years ago, when Sharon Kessler started talking about her fascination with typesetting and printing, I was mildly interested.  Last month when she gave me a few books she had printed I became fascinated.  The concept of focussing on the word, each word, each line, made me realize what is missing in my own poetry, the carelessness I find that characterizes my mind.  

So today we drove up to Pardess Chana to film her in her studio where we found her ready to show us her printing machines, the process of hand setting the words and printing.  It was fascinating  – a world in a studio!
