Scope and Contents

The poem printed in black block capital letters across the center of each page reads "Silence oscillating between seen & unseen resonates deafening echoes." The background text consists of densely printed randomly arranged letters printed in several shades of red ink. The covers of the book are printed with a black on gray background letter picture. The black fabric on the box resembles book covers and the gray fabric on the sides of the box gives an appearance of pages. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
