Number 8 of an edition of 20. On the same piece of paper as PR1402 and PR1403. The Prynu Dol Series are screenprints derived from abstract black-line illustrations for Kate Roberts' novel 'Prynu Dol a Storiau Eraill', first published in 1969 by Gwasg Gee of Denbigh. Each illustration accompanied the start of a chapter. The chapter this print illustrates reflects upon a young boy's inability to capture the mood of a complex poem he must learn for a recital. His inspiration comes days before the competition when his loyal dog is mysteriously taken ill. Young Dan finds sadistic comfort in the poem that describes one of the rabbits being slayed by a greyhound
