SECTION A:
This index includes books and chabooks published from 1964 to the early 2000s.
1. Nuttall, Jeff. MR. WATKINS GOT DRUNK AND HAD TO BE CARRIED HOME
n.p.: privately printed, February 1964
First edition, side-stapled in illustrated and printed wrappers, 6.75” x 8”, 92 pages, 50 copies, cover illustration by Nuttall, mimeograph printed.
Note: The book’s title refers to Welsh artist Islwyn Watkins, a friend of Nuttall’s who described the origin of the work in an interview with David Moore on Reality Studio: “The context of that was Jeff and his wife Jane decided to hold a party at their house in Salisbury Road and invited a range of people — Group H members, Writers’ Forum members and other people — to attend the party but they had to bring with them a text which described the party and what went on in the party so that it was a forecast of what happened. As well as this he tape-recorded the actual party and the idea was that all these accounts would be cut up and reassembled to produce an analogy to the party but not a logical description of it. As well as taking my forecast of the events of the party along to the house that night I took with me four or five accounts written by pupils I was involved with at the time in school who were remedial education pupils and they, in fact, wrote accounts of the party featuring, of course, me, and one of those accounts was Mr Watkins Got Drunk & Had to be Carried Home. It didn’t actually happen.”
