Publisher Atelier Éditions writes:
John Cage: A Mycological Foray draws readers across the idiosyncratic, mushroom-suffused, innermost landscape of celebrated American composer John Cage. Upon the remarkable journey with Cage, one encounters assorted photographs, compositions, and contemplations; all in the very same unexpected fashion one encounters various flora and fungi species while mushroom foraging. Volume I encompasses Cage’s mycological-oriented Indeterminacy stories, Diary excerpts, and essays; and the complete transcript of Cage’s 1983 performance, MUSHROOMS et Variationes. Volume II offers the inaugural reproduction of Cage’s 1972 portfolio, Mushroom Book; authored in collaboration with illustrator Lois Long and botanist Alexander H. Smith.
Text throughout is set in Monotype Baskerville, with headings in Traulha and Cage's own writings in Space Mono.
The colophon credits design director Capucine Labarthe and illustrator Katty Maurey.







The back cover features Traulha Regulara and Italica.

Every Mushroom is a Good Mushroom is a supplement to the book.
