This publication consists of two volumes (Multiple & Readings).
Published on the occasion of the exhibition ‘Multiple / Readings. 51 artists' books,’ at the Nottebohmzaal at the Erfgoedbibliotheek Hendrik Conscience in Antwerp, from October 3 to April 2004, 2011, and at the Municipal Public Library in Harelbeke, from April 7 to August 27, 2011.

Curator and author is Johan Pas. The books are all from the collection of the author.

Standaardwerk over het unieke oeuvre van Roobjee, in de vorm van een abecedarium. Nadruk op het plastische werk, maar het literaire komt eveneens aan bod. Knappe vormgeving van Dooreman, als vanouds. Mooi tijdsbeeld, brede historische kadering.
