Bookishness

Loving Books in a Digital Age

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Jessica Pressman explores the rise of â bookishnessâ as an identity and an aesthetic strategy that proliferates from store-window dà cor to experimental writing. Ranging from literature to kitsch objects, stop-motion animation films to book design, she considers the multivalent meanings of books in contemporary culture.
