Fine (Includes the pamphlet, Index to the first edition of Soliloquy) 

Soliloquy is a written record of every word (good, bad and indifferent), spoken by New York artist Kenneth Goldsmith during one week and debuted as a text installation in 1997. Presenting all of one man’s words in a continuous, abstract stream, the work inspired self-examination by both artist and viewers. In this book version, language is concrete as well as arranged. The collection of words is divided into seven “acts” through which the structure and sequence of Goldsmith’s days becomes evident.

Extremely rare with pamphlet
