Neuware - 123 artists, bookbinders, publishers, librarians, and scholars answer a deceptively simple question: What is a book In April 2018, after publishing The Book in The MIT Press’ Essential Knowledge Series, Amaranth Borsuk began to approach artists, bookbinders, publishers, librarians, and scholars to inquire about their definition of the book.

Throw a charnel next over the book Set out a bowl of water for the unseen beings, the animals and birds, that gather at its boundary. Or brink."—Bhanu Kapil"What is a book It stinks. B.O…O. K.

The Taíno language would not have had a word for it but is had GUAROCO = to know, but also to remember (see petroglyphs). A book is a way of knowing, re-membering what is forever lost in translation."—Urayoán Noel"A book is the flesh between flesh, a hard text sculpture from soft text immensities, a staged performance of time, a tangible glance of minds, the desire to speak other."—Lisa Samuels.…
