Middletown, CT Wesleyan University Press, 1961. Hardcover First Edition (1961); Second Printing (1967). Good+ in Good DJ: The Book shows light shelving wear to the lower extremities; a hint of dusting and soiling to the peach-tinted top edge; soiling to the last few pages of text and the rear endpapers; a patch of discoloration to the top of the front hinge and similar discoloration along the very top edges of the panels; the fore-edge shows a hint of toning; the binding is ever so slightly cocked off square, while remaining perfectly secure; the text is clean. Free of creased or dog-eared pages in the text. Free of underlining, hi-lighting, notations, or marginalia. Free of any ownership names, dates, addresses, notations, inscriptions, stamps, plates, or labels. A good reading copy, structurally sound and tightly bound, showing mild wear and several cosmetic imperfections. The DJ shows heavy rubbing to the panels; a two inch tear at the top of the front hinge and some roughage around it; a small snag at the bottom edge of the front panel; the price has been clipped. Serviceable but no longer particularly attractive. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. (9.5 x 8.35 x 1.15 inches). xii, 276 pages. Language: English. Weight: 32.3 ounces. Decorated Endpapers. Dark Grey cloth over boards with gold and white titles at the backstrip and an embossed authorial name at the front panel. . First Edition (1961); Second Printing (1967). Hardback with DJ. John Cage Jr. (1912 – 1992) was an American composer and music theorist. A pioneer of indeterminacy in music, electroacoustic music, and non-standard use of musical instruments, Cage was one of the leading figures of the post-war avant-garde. He was certainly one of the most influential composers of the 20th century. In Silence, Cage explains a lot of the techniques he used when composing, and discusses the value and meaning of music.
