Student Narrative
This book is about Jim DiMarcantonio, a professional bookbinder, both as a bookbinding expert and ordinary human, about how he sees his work, life and relationship with books, and how he portrays himself. It’s about what I have gained from my first ten visits to his studio, my impression of him, also the relationship I have built with him over these visits.
