Finish: hand-insert into polybags with offset-printed flyleaf (GardaPat Kiara) This book expresses its own ethos of beauty-meetsmachine through surprising experimentation with materials. Like haute couture, it’s custom made and brings new meaning to look, touch, read—thick plastic inventively encases a thick chipboard cover punched with holes, and metallic pages reflect back at the reader with rich reproductions of exhibition photos. Austere type treatment lends a spare, modern edge. Beautiful integration of multiple paper stocks adds to the elite glamour, along with the sparkle of silver foil and impeccable printing, each couture item is exquisitely brought to life. Tucked into the back jacket, a hand-sewn booklet begs to be touched with its dimpled fibrous cover.

Bodoniana with 3.5mm boards The structure of the book cover—linen spine peaks out behind a thick board cover—is a study in smart elegance. Flush-cut edges and boldly printed end leaves create a dramatic opening; subtly different papers rhythmically punctuate the content, closing with a batch of pale gray pages. Handsome and architectural.

The glossy black title foil is ominously bold on the linen box; below, the personal note from Coppola is a fun intro and invitation to open and visit behind the set. Hard not to appreciate the binder inside—faithfully reproduced—its cumbersome bulk makes it more real and cool. Use of old-time tabs and lightweight note paper with typewriter text add to the realism, as does the wonderful manila envelope filled with ephemera and nice movie still reproductions. The only thing missing was a horse head!

550 pages of beautifully reproduced masterpieces make for a masterpiece of a book, and this one is epic. Elegant typographical hierarchies and ceaseless attention to all bookbinding details—the technical difficulty underlying the blue-border sections is more than impressive on a book of this scope. The pearly white foil type stamped on the cover and two foils on the spine bring the perfect shimmer to IngresPrincesse. Well done, Met!

The leathery cover with its ornate border and debossed graphics looks lavishly antique, and resonates beautifully with illustrator Jyuu Ayakura’s fantastic artwork. A medieval manuscript theme is poetically conveyed through warm page colors and tawny text; paper stock changes add a rich, tactile quality. An impressive omnibus that looks equally handsome from a side view of page edges; a placeholder ribbon brings a silky splash of color. Spice and Wolf collectors should be thrilled!

Engaging and colorful, the cover collage of photos conveys a contemporary day-in-thelife feel, promising a fresh read on the subject of inspirational stories. Debossed typography adds a touch of tactile elegance. Interior pages pair fresh-looking portrait photographs with playful type in a tight grid. Integrating various-sized type can sometimes confuse a narrative, but here the changes in scale and styles effectively convey key story points in an energetic, easy-to-read manner.

This black tome of Coppola’s behind-thescenes notes and annotations authentically logs the filmmaker’s intense creative process. The old-fashioned notebook cover is pleasingly jam-packed with lightweight pages, dense with layers of typewriter manuscript and handscribbled side notes. The flexible binding adds to its workbook feel, while the luxury of foil type and a short dust jacket brings a hip flare to the book’s heft.

Lovingly crafted with a ridged spine, deckleedged pages, and period style typography, Hamilton, the book, captures the spirit of the acclaimed musical. Old-world type style section openers and folios print on lightweight, cream-colored pages, harkening old parchment from an historic document. Excellent use of full-bleed photography from the performance and, despite its heft, the book stays lively with red side notes and dialogue text reversing to white, occasionally framing the cast and adding drama.

French Love Poems Various; Edited by Tynan Kogane
Arthur Rimbaud (1854–1891)
Chanson de la plus haute tour
Song of the Highest Tower
Qu’il vienne, qu’il vienne, Le temps dont on s’éprenne.
May it come, may it come, The time when love astounds us.
J’ai tant fait patience Qu’à jamais j’oublie. Craintes et souffrances Aux cieux sont parties. Et la soif malsaine Obscurcit mes veines.
I have kept so patient That forever I forget. Fears and sufferings To the heavens have risen. And the degenerate thirst Darkens my veins.
Qu’il vienne, qu’il vienne, Le temps dont on s’éprenne.
May it come, may it come, The time when love astounds us.
Telle la prairie A l’oubli livrée, Grandie et fleurie D’encens et d’ivraies, Au bourdon farouche De sales mouches.
Like the meadow, Left unattended, Overgrown, florid With fragrance and rye, Amid the harsh hum Of dirty flies.
Qu’il vienne, qu’il vienne, Le temps dont on s’éprenne.
May it come, may it come, The time when love astounds us.

This box of curiosities is an intriguing way to educate and illuminate the mysterious world of marine invertebrates, a difficult subject to present. Rarely seen sea life gets de-mystified: the dark background conveys a sense of underwater wonder and effectively sets off the muted colors of the specimens. The fold-out poster neatly packs in detailed information with magnified views of the ocean creatures—like looking through a microscope in a marine laboratory!

As if a stage curtain, the gray linen case quietly opens, introducing the breathtaking cover of this celebration of dance. Fantastically opulent, the book is truly an embodiment of grace and movement. The cover title poises on the ethereal dancer, each letter serif seeming to convey the point behind en pointe. The photographs are superbly reproduced with unearthly clarity, and the closing illustrated index, logging each photo at thumbnail size, flows like a full ensemble ballet.

Diamond Nights M As night falls over the Makgadikgadi Pans, giant trees stand starkly against the horizon. True wildness manifests itself in the form of curling black branches in November,

I set out to record the lives of some of the I chose trees that were remarkable for their size, Ancient Trees: Portraits of Time. I usually photographed in the early morning light or caught the sun low in the sky as it was about to set. I learned of two interesting studies that correlated Rarely did I tree growth with celestial activity, and it changed the way I looked at trees. One of these studies, conducted by researchers at the University of Edinburgh, suggests that trees may grow faster when more cosmic radiaEdwards, who tion reaches Earth’s surface. found that tree buds change shape and size rhythmically all through winter, in regular cycles corresponding Mars, the beech with Saturn, and the birch with Venus. Curiously, Edwards also found that overhead power lines disrupted More broadly, David Milarch, founder of the Archangel Ancient Tree Archive, has said, “Trees are solar collectors. Most people equate that with the sun’s energy. But the sun is only one star, and there are billions Earth with their radiation. . . . I also believe energies inside the earth are transmuted

The surreal quality of Moon’s photographs is captured in this most excellent recording of her work. Each image beautifully framed, night sky constellations seem to glitter off the pages, one star at a time. One can almost hear the creak of ancient tree trunks twisting. Bravo.

The typography seems appropriate, stamped boldly onto the cover. An electriccolored belly band cuts across the neutral front, like a warning bar. A true cautionary tale.

A neat, concise package that smartly holds an impressive, obsessive tower of drawings makes for a one-of-kind coloring book that would appeal to adults for its intricate origamilike folds, and to children for the imaginative intricate images requiring hours to color, no doubt. The iridescent foil-stamped type on the cover of Ocean Deep adds a touch of chic to the age-old pastime of coloring in books.
