The Bookbinder

by Pip Williams

As soon as someone cracks the spine, a book develops a character all its own. What impresses or concerns one reader is never the same as what impresses or concerns all others. So, each book, once read, will fall open at a different place. Each book, once read, I realised, will have told a slightly different story. I let the book open where it willed and put it on the easel.

Each book..different story .
