Scope and Contents
Described as a profoundly wounded book, Spector has torn the edge of each page with his characteristic technique of "leaving a shredded field of typographic characters" which can read as the pages are turned but not when visualized on opening its cover. This is not a found book, but a page of text written by Spector printed initially by Phillip Gallo, then reprinted on 181 pages by Brad Freeman, torn by Spector, and finally bound by Jill Levine. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
