Even though I feel like a little part of me dies inside every time I see a book mutilated like this, I secretly do appreciate the fact that maybe, as a book's dying wish, it would've liked to have been viewed as a piece of art rather than as a piece of literature. And then I think, aren't written books a piece of art in it of itself?
My thinking...It's better that it is getting turned into something new and beautiful all over again than being burned, trashed, or discarded and left to rot.
