Sara Jane Bailes gives an incredible argument about the presence of failure in postmodernist ideology and practice. Ive been reading books lately on this topic and hers is by far the best. She includes examples from philosophy. theory and artistic works from Beckett to present day theater-makers. A concise and highly informative read.Larissa.Choreographer and dance-theater director0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
