Experimental 'paper theatre' book from Shuji Terayama. The principles behind Terayama's paper theatre were that a book or object can embody the narrative and spirit of a play rather than simply portray it, through text, photograph, drawing and collage. Here he works with Daido Moriyama and Takuma Nakahira. In retrospect it's almost a practical application of the provoke spirit.
