This chapter investigates the phenomenon of textual spatiality, in other words the conceptual, material-medial and typographical dimension of select printed texts. In this chapter I take Elisabeth Rynell's poetry collection I mina hus (2006) and its blank-space technique as my point of departure. Rynell's specific treatment of embodied text and layout and her systematic switching between points of view stimulate readers' awareness of both composition and poetic self-reflection. I mina hus compares dwelling, writing and reading as experiences of life that are analogous to inscriptions. The author draws on modernist traditions, her poetry taking inspiration from early modernism and from models that thematize form, formal systems and typography.
