Structure of the visual book

by Keith A. Smith

"[A] play of many voices that celebrates the music of thought. Seven people by chance and circumstance inhabit the same building. During this work day walls become translucent, barriers that separate these solitary workers thin out. The characters reveal themselves through the melodies and rhythms in their speech, exposing personalities that are complex and often contradictory. I mean you know delineates the varieties of orchestrations and juxtapositions of voices within a musical score format. This visual book serves both as a book that reads silently out loud and as a script for performance"--Book jacket.
