Thirty Years of Critical Engagements with John Cage / Kostelanetz, Richard ; Cage J ; Perloff M., 1997
Kostelanetz writes that "this book differs from most other writing about Cage in emphasizing his professional adventurousness, acknowledging not only his music but his theater, writing, radio, visual art, political philosophy, and much else, all reflecting a career based upon artistic (and thus artists') freedom...In its variety and its departures from expository conventions thirty Years is probably a more Cagean book than a measured continuous exposition." The design of this book utilizes page numbering through overlaying each page of text with a large gray number. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
