Refractions

While the book contains a fair bit of writing, it also feels like an art book you may pick up at an exhibition. Fujimura’s essays are warm, personal, and insightful thus far, creating a great atmosphere in which to read the book and to absorb it.

Who knows where publishing is going these days with ebooks, the black and white Kindle 2, and all manner of cost-cutting measures, but Refractions is the kind of book you’ll want to hold in your hands, the kind of book that cannot be justified with an online viewer. Let the mass market books slip away into the Kindle and iPhone. However, I think NavPress and Fujimura are right on with the design and content of this work. Both this book and Jesus for President are the kind of books that marry both content and design in a way that will create books worth buying and storing on our shelves.

I look forward to reading the rest of the book and posting some more thoughts in the days to come.
