"I can't understand why people are frightened of new ideas. I'm frightened of the old ones." -John Cage

Rogers takes a brilliant tack, here, asking "What if..." and "If..." instead of presenting a straightforward chronological bio of the composer. In this way, she relates many of Cage's famous quirks, like putting erasers and bolts and screws inside a piano to make it sound like "a whole orchestra." Ultimately, though, "to be like John Cage, the only thing you have to do...is listen."

Note: I accessed a digital review copy of this book through Edelweiss. I also received an ARC of this book at an ALA conference.
