Layouts in progress for a new pamphlet of Kleist translations. I'm having a lot of fun with colored type, and it felt appropriate to have fancy OpenType script for "On the Marionette Theater":

Reprint in progress: Shadowings by Lafcadio Hearn, an excellent collection from 1900, featuring studies of Japanese legends and linguistics as well as more personal, Gothic and Symbolist-inspired narratives. An odd duck in Hearn's catalog but all the stronger for it. @addisonzeller.bsky.social
