Miles introduces, investigates, and explains creative processes through the lives, work, and subjectivities of 10 people generating music, art, and literature for public consumption, all entering or experiencing middle-age and living in English. He covers lost in space: music and aura; music, sociality, and identity; the subterranean river; down in the woods; inspired by the sea; living a dream and dreaming a living; shifting rhythms and a sense of purpose; the mezzanine and midlife creativity; and Monday afternoon and the millennium.--Annotation (c)2019 (protoview.com)
