This beautifully illustrated book was compiled and edited by Nomi Rowe who was a pupil of Cecil's at the City Literary Institute for five years.
In Nomi's own words:
"In Celebration of Cecil Collins has collected together these very personal accounts in order to preserve the vitality of Cecil's presence and to make his legacy known to a wider public."
The book is published by FOOLSCAP and distributed by Paul Holberton Publishing, 89 Borough High Street, London SE1 1NLT
