Told in disparate voices, CUT is a posthumous look at the personal and professional life of a visionary artist, and the price he-- but equally those near to him-- paid, to get his voice heard. It describes a man whose commitment to artistic integrity and art as a platform for social reform, often took precedence over those he loved. In today's world of government censure and ruthless stifling of any who question their ways, Cut is also a deeply pertinent and timely book.
