More Than Just A Story
“Much is to be gained by eBooks: ease, convenience, portability. But something is definitely lost: tradition, a sensual experience, the comfort of thingy-ness — a little bit of humanity.” -Chip Kidd, book cover designer
That first crack
of the spine, the smell,

the weight…books
are more than just a story.

That first crack
of the whip, the welts,
the whimpers,
the power…
love does not live here, only
lust’s broken souls do
