Amazing", "You're mad", "What the f***?

28 October 2010

What a week. After 18 months in the making, writing, cutting, binding, test dummying, not workings, wrong paper, different cover we will have finished copies of Tree of Codes in four days’ time. With proof copies in our hands last weekend, we thought it was time to take the book to the streets and see what people made of it.

With Mathew’s help and Bella’s assistance we went out on Friday and then again on Sunday, to show the book, have people look, touch, feel it, but most importantly: to open it up.

So, what did they think? Well, this is one of those times where pictures say more than words. Let’s just say that everyone reacted and everyone had something to say. “Mad”, “crazy”, “amazing”, “beautiful”, “unbelievable”, “utterly desirable”, “unreadable”, no one could ever say that this book, once you open it, is the kind of book you just read or look at. This is a book that makes you feel like you want to literally crawl inside and feel it.

A very big thank you to everyone who shared your instant reactions and emotions. We were delighted and more excited than ever.

We can’t wait to share the film and at long last, the book with you all.

Britt & Anna
