1. Author has exceptional reputation in literary circles, with profiles in publications including the New Yorker, New York Times, and the LA Times 2. Of Silence and Song formed the basis of Author's work as a Guggenheim fellow 3. The book is timely, emerging from a reaction to our current media predicament: a response "to a culture filled with a kind of noise that seems at times to either replace thinking or make thinking impossible," hence the title 4. Structure for the text comes from a unique formal experiment, to "spend one-hundred essays in contemplation-the simple discipline of it, of seeking no way out of the thinking that the form itself demands." 5. Similar to A Whaler's Dictionary and Wonderful Investigations, Of Silence and Song will feature special design and construction to echo the elegance of the contents 6. Given the author's profile, we expect strong endorsements and review coverage for the book
