A new manifesto on the creative process from a master of the impossible-- "Creativity:  The Perfect Crime"  by Phillippe Petit.

 
Since well before his epic 1974 walk between the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center, Philippe Petit had become an artist who answered first and foremost to the demands of his craft—not only on the high wire, but also as a magician, street juggler, visual artist, builder, and writer. His outlaw sensibility spawned a unique approach to the creative process—an approach he shares, with characteristic enthusiasm, irreverence, and originality in Creativity: The Perfect Crime.  It's the Kbach/Changing Hands Bookstore Book Notes selection for the month!
