The Disappointed Book

What happens to a book that’s been gifted, throughout one year’s time?  I came across this short video that offers a creative view into the life of one such red book, and simply shows the natural process that many books tend to go through.

The life of this book has its ups and downs, it is not an overly emotional or exaggerated life. It changes hands, gets read, is flipped through, gets placed here, finds itself placed there, becomes a temporary coaster, and is even used as temporary solutions for things un-book-related. 

This short film is certainly a conversation starter on a topic most of us have thought about on many occations.
