Flaubert_1

This “book-object” is a personal rehabilitation of the Dictionary of Received Ideas (in French, Le Dictionnaire des Idées Reçues) from Flaubert. The text is built around an object recovering in the street, the tape, which in its function, represents the confinement of thoughts that can’t change despite the time. And it is so surprising how these ideas are still relevant a century and a half later.

Box imitation dain and title engraved on paper that looks like metal. Book Cover imitation metal with an embossed tape. Printed in a single copy.
