This publication sheds light on the dramaturgical process involved in the creation of a solo performance. Co-authored by the performer and director, the book re-traces the making of the performance as a fascinating journey that takes Descartes’s seventeenth-century legacy and its present-day re-reading as its point of departure. The book includes references to the literary, visual, and musical texts that inspired the performance. 64 pages.
