Channeling the rhythms and the logic, the sense and the nonsense of domains as vast and varied as quantum physics, mid-century mass culture, the insides of a crayon box and the storehouse of personal memory, Black and White Coloring Book takes on the project of decoding the modern American experience in all of its hilarity, despair and fleeting human connection.
