handmade books, etc. by Carole Burkett

The drawstring coil book sits closed on a table.

Drawstring coil book

In the interest of making a new kind of book, this is a book with two hard covers that closes around a coil of paper attached to one of the covers. When the drawstrings are loosened, the top cover can slide to the side, allowing the coil to open and the book to be read. The text of this first-run trial is from a printer malfunction.
