4.0

An anthology of shorter works written and published throughout the 60s and 70s. The first grouping seems to have been drawn from the same word hoard as his novels, both past and future. The second grouping had some of my favourite pieces, including an explication of his three columns of text experiments ('The Moving Times'). Includes pages from his incredible cut-up scrapbooks.
