Illustrated poetry collection 'The Dunce'
A-14-68    Сафонова Маргарита

There is a book design and illustrations for Ukrainian edition of poems written by French poet Jacques Prevert. The title of the book derives from so-called verse 'Nezdara' ('Le Cancre' in French or 'The Dunce' in English). Jacques Prevert has been a pacifist and non-conformist. He also left the school at the age of 15. So, the idea of the edition was to show the feeling of spontaneity and truthfullness. I also wanted illustrations not to impose anything to the reader and made them looking much more like notes in the margins than pictures.
