Jonathan Safran Foer is one of my favorite authors. Check out his insanely awesome new book, Tree of Codes - a collection of die-cut pages from his favorite book, Bruno Schulz’s The Street of Crocodiles. Made as an exploration of “the pages’ physical relationship to one another” and the die-cut technique, Foer attempts to create a meaningful narrative with an existing text.
Printers didn’t want to touch it, saying “the book you want to make just cannot be made.” Until, of course a Belgian printer said Challenge Accepted, and this was made. (via dickensian)
This is a week of stumbling upon awesome reads! What are the chances?
