My copy of author Chang-rae Lee’s new dystopian novel On Such a Full Sea came with the quaint, antiquated book jacket that you see above. Now I’m coveting the very cool limited edition 3D printed cover version (see below). Lee’s American publisher Riverhead teamed up with the folks at MakerBot to create a 3D book jacket slipcase for the novel. Take a look at the video below to see how it was all done.
By the way, like all of Lee’s fine books, it’s well worth a read, but with a less than satisfying ending.
