The reader is pulled through the book by the story's narrative, but simultaneously slowed down by escalating digressions of language. As the book progresses, the pages grow ever denser, filled by increasing footnotes, vocabulary definitions, exegesis by individual words, talking punctuation and page numbers, and growing chains of word associations spilling across the page. It's a thirty-second story that takes nearly thirty minutes to read, and even longer to fully unpack. In the end, the book is a meditation on words and language, the caterpillars and parsley simply acting as our guides"--Artist's website (accessed Sept. 26, 2016). 655 7 $a Artists' book. $2 rbgenr 710 2 $a Large Home Tiny Idea. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180110022247.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=75863782F5D411E7B33F7C0497128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
