Spine Poems: An Eclectic Collection of Found Verse for Book Lovers

"Spine Poems is the bibliophile’s equivalent of playing with food. The conceit: stack books, arranging titles to create social commentary moonlighting as found poetry. A sample two-liner courtesy of Sarah Frier and Joan Didion: “No Filter/Let Me Tell You What I Mean.” Fareed Zakaria’s Ten Lessons for the Post-Pandemic World sits atop a pile of 10 volumes that includes Dare to Disappoint, Keep Going and Yes, We (Still) Can. Accompanying notes and quotes add another dimension – if your eyes are up to the tiny footnote-size typeface."
