Suzanne J.E. Tourtillott, Editor

The 500 volumes chosen to appear in these lushly illustrated pages represent the unlimited creative possibilities for interpreting an enduring form. They capture the range and depth of the craft today, from single-sheet bindings to collage, flip, and pop-up works. To qualify for inclusion, each piece had to function like a book, but a number of the works also curl, hang, or swirl. Some of the pages are blank, while others contain elaborate, content-driven narratives.
