This August, the theme is bookmarks. A thin slip of paper tucked between pages. It’s an ordinary object, one you come across without thinking about it, yet a small amount of attention turns it into something that carries the reader’s taste and warmth. The grain of the paper, the size of the type, even the way a corner is cut — each one holds the choice of whoever made it. Beyond marking where you left off, there’s the possibility of a small printed piece you meet again every time the book opens. We’ve gathered references that might make you want to make one yourself.
