Inspired by theatrical writings of Antonin Artaud, Rosenthal's performance art blends music, words, images and dance into ferociously moving works--a theater of cruelty tempered by love. Featuring critical commentary, interviews and photographs of Rosenthal's performances and collecting for the first time a selection of her writings (including the script of Rachel's Brain), this book captures the voice of a unique American artist.
