Scope and Contents
Williams writes in his forward, "The fables - on the right-hand pages of the book - came first. Only gradually, after several exhibitions of these far-fetched fictions, did I come to realize that there was at least an iota, a jot or a tittle of truth - and sometimes a big blob of reality - in each and everyone one of them. And here, for the first time, the documentation appears opposite the collages themselves...on the left hand pages, opposite each of the cartoons, are enlightening documents from the author's personal archive relating some of the unlikely things that really happened in Performance Art 'show biz' over the years." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
