I’m Sorry, But We’re Closed by Susan L. Lin

My book is based on the idea that all literature is inspired and influenced by the books that came before it. The text on the outside and inside covers is a short selection from a monologue I wrote about a girl who, in her twenties, sits in a room brimming with books, memories, and ghosts from her childhood. On the accordion spine are miniature versions of existing books by writers such as Nick Flynn and James Joyce, complete with quotes that were particularly influential to me while creating this work. It was printed with an inkjet on book cloth, binder’s board, cardstock, and photo paper, then bound as a flag book. 22.5 x 16 x 1.75 cm.
