""From André Breton to Robert Smithson, the book nimbly threads the stories of many figures into a coherent and pleasurable read… With a talent for setting the scene and rendering vivid portraits, Falconer brings the stories of these artists, each with conflicting agendas, into one comprehensible argument."" -- Aaron Peck - The Times Literary Supplement ""The book rushes readers at a velocity Marinetti would have enjoyed.… [F]ascinating."" -- Orlando Whitfield - The New York Times ""A group biography of the modern artists who at one point or another had enough of the artistic status quo.… [B]eing avant-garde, Mr. Falconer reminds us, meant going yet further and abandoning art as traditionally conceived."" -- Max Norman - The Wall Street Journal
