Scope and Contents

This book is the printed version of Goldsmith's retyping of one day of The New York Times. Goldsmith writes, "I am spending my 39th year practicing uncreativity. On Friday, September 1, 2000, I began retyping the day's New York Times, word for word, letter for letter, from the upper left hand corner to the lower right hand corner, page by page...When I reach 40, I hope to have cleaned myself of all creativity." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
