The Book As

End Note on Recto/Verso

To challenge the introduction to this section, recto/verso of the codex is more than just front and back. This structure is a many-sided relationship that exists in books. It is a source of tangibility, of interaction, of experience. It enables choice - by both the author and reader. It is movable despite its roots in binding. It provides juxtapositions and simultaneously divisions. It is a varied system of the book. The relationship of recto and verso facilitates the phenomenal experience of reading.
