While the publishing recession has become commonplace and the polarization between bestsellers and non-bestsellers continues to grow, the reason why there are still many books featuring books and for books in bookstores is a sense of nostalgia for things that are disappearing. is it?
I don't think so with this book. The reason why the ``media'' of books is constantly being reconsidered is that ``reading'' brings about an ``experience'' that goes beyond the reader's motivation.
In this book, I will be searching for such a book. Although it looks like a catalog at first glance, this book is not just about convenience.
While reflecting 2015, please open this book and look for the intention of "reading" that distinguishes the present from the past by not being particular about the present.
