This edition of Patricia Lockwood’s shortlisted book ‘No One is Talking About This’ was created by @markbookartist, a member of the Designer Bookbinders society. Mark says: “My design for the binding is based on the almost constant stream of information/non-information that we confront nearly every waking hour. From the blithe, banal, funny to the extreme. We have to filter out what matters to us. Using cut out letters from various publications and based on asemic writing, the letters, at first appear to be in an abstract vacuum of meaning, leaving the reader to fill in the gaps or make sense of what is before them. It is not until the code is understood that the text has meaning." #BookerPrize #PatriciaLockwood #NoOneIsTalkingAboutThis #DesignerBookbinders
