Species of Abandoned Light / Berry, Jake ; Foley J., 1995
Foley contributes an Afterword in which he points out that Berry phrases juxtaposed to other phrases may have nothing to do with each other. Foley indicates that readers identify the value of a text with its unity but Berry's text is deliberately & fundamentally incoherent - though it is not insane. Berry is not under the delusion that his text makes sense whereas in fact it does not. It is a glimpse of chaos that allows us to hold our minds, without danger, in constant perception of a powerful force, -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.

The author indicates that he intends to create sprawl in a text stream and acknowleges the books of Ed Ruscha, Raymond Roussell, Guy Debord, Asger Jorn, Jeff Wall, On Kawara, and Cyril Mcfadden. The pages have been printed with a software program that allows assigning a value of a gray scale to each letter. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
