A Year with Swollen Appendices : Brian Eno's Diary
Brian Eno - Book - by Brian Eno
(2023)
The
diary and essays of Brian Eno republished twenty-five years on with a
new introduction by the artist in a beautiful hardback edition. 'One of
the seminal books about music . .
What
he did do - and write - however, was astonishing: ruminations on his
collaborative work with artists including David Bowie, U2, James and Jah
Wobble, interspersed with correspondence and essays dating back to
1978. These 'appendices' covered topics from the generative and ambient
music Eno pioneered to what he believed the role of an artist and their
art to truly be, alongside razor-sharp commentary on his day-to-day
tribulations and happenings around the world. A fascinating, candid and
intimate insight into one of the most influential creative artists of
our time, A Year with Swollen Appendices is an essential classic,
reissued for a new generation of readers.
This
beautiful 25th anniversary paperback edition has been re-designed in
A5, the same size as the diary that eventually became this book. It
features two ribbons, pink paper delineating the appendices (matching
the original hardback edition) and a two-tone cover that pays homage to
the original design.
