"Between 1963 and 1965, Ray Johnson printed thirteen pages of his 'Book about death' with the Pernet Printing Company ... For Ray, who a decade earlier had cut holes into books he had constructed, 'The book about death' must remain an open work, lest dying close a book on life"--P. 1 of commentary.
