Description

From the creators of the popular Bibliophilia Postcard Box, this clever book of postcards features 12 famous quotes from literature graphically arranged to reveal the hidden -modern- meaning behind the classic text: when Elizabeth Bennett is spurning Mr. Darcy in Pride and Prejudice, artfully placed type and spot glossed color reveals that she's really telling him -hell no!- When Romeo admonishes the cruelty of the world in Romeo and Juliet, he's really saying -OMG!- Each type-driven design breathes new life into classic literature, sure to delight book lovers of all stripes. The 24 cards, (12 designs repeating twice each) are bound into a miniature -book- package to complete the liteary conceit.
