Gutenberg's Fingerprint

Meer over het boek

Exploring the evolution of books, the narrative delves into four pivotal shifts in human communication, culminating in the digital age. Merilyn Simonds reflects on her experiences with both traditional and digital formats, questioning what is lost and gained in this transition. Through her collaboration with Hugh Barclay on a letterpress project and the development of a digital edition, she challenges her beliefs about reading, writing, and creativity. This thought-provoking work examines the implications of the digital shift on contemporary reading practices.
