In the last of the three, silence eats the music from the inside so that by the final loop, the listener hears not the soaring themes of the beginning, but an homage to loss and stillness. The book insists that music, and maybe even life itself, is made more dazzling and precious because it \"falters\/ \u0026amp; staggers\/ forward. The broken\/ melody limps \u0026amp; surges on.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stephen Cramer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1947175491\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781947175495\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Serving House Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/26\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 104\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.36lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.25d","brand":"Stephen Cramer","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43981984268543,"sku":"9781947175495","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6e0a0dfe-24ac-4b84-992b-43e7c1baa26e.jpg?v=1683258623","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-disintegration-loops-stephen-cramer-9781947175495","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
