Author Jonathan Safran Foer in collaboration with designer Sara de Bondt has created something that reminds us why hard copy books, the art form, cannot be replicated by transferring the text and images alone onto the web. I say this as someone (aka an Internet enthusiast) who has been working on the Internet (pre-web) since 1990.
Safran Foer's new book Tree of Codes, (images above and below) which he said was inspired by Bruno Schulz's The Street of Crocodiles, takes us on a reading experience that is once immersive and unpredictable. Apparently it was rejected by numerous publishers as impossible to produce.
Here is the author describing the making of the book Tree of Codes.
