In this blog post, I’m going to show you a book by Iram Boom called “James, Jennifer, Georgina”. The story tells the story of Butlers’ family history of “abandoning protection and love” through postcards. The mother wrote 1,136 postcards to her daughter over a 10-year period, taking her father on endless road trips to help him kick his addiction. In the editing, the designer divides the story into several parts, such as family portraits, postcard newsletters, and family dialogue quotes. In the typesetting and binding of the book, the size, paper, structure and other factors are closely combined with the romance of the story, and the authenticity of the story is highlighted.
In this book, most of the content is composed of postcards. In today’s publishing industry, due to commercial purposes and cost constraints, most of the book binding and typesetting methods have been fixed and template. The book “James, Jennifer, Georgina” uses a new way of expression to make readers empathize with each other in the form of postcards and feel the affection of this book.
