Selected Organs: Parts of an Autobiography / Nichol, bp ; Kroetsch R., 1988
Selected Organs is a part of a larger autobiography entitled Organ Music. The basic idea of these prose pieces was to write an autobiography from a different direction concentrating on the parts of the body. All stories in this autobiography are true and told in a specific style borrowed from the oral story-telling methods of Nichol's grandmother. Nichol also drew the body part for each section. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

Two Novels: Andy / For Jesus Lunatick, 1969
The dust jacket is chipped and torn in several places. However the black cloth cover and the text and images are in fine condition. The prose and poems are printed in back to back reversed sections for each of the two novels. The novel "For Jesus Lunatick" is printed without punctuations in a highly experimental layout including several numbered blank pages. The latter are for numbered illustrations placed in the center section that the reader is requested to cut and paste to the respective page. "Andy "is punctuated and layed out experimentally with some pages concrete poetic in appearance. It, too, has several pages that are numbered and blank with exception of a single number placed at different locations to receive the illustrations from the cutttings in the center section. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
Two Novels: Andy / For Jesus Lunatick Second Edition / Nichol, bp., 1971
In contrast to the first edition in which the prose and poems were printed in back to back reversed sections for each of the two novels, the printing in this second edition is sequential. The illustrations are printed in their designated positions for "Andy" but the pages are left blank for the novel "For Jesus Lunatick. The book design is not nearly as successful as the first edition that is also held by the Sackner Archive. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
