Book Description
Whether they're glowing from a neon sign or scrawled as graffiti on the wall, letters are both meaningful and beautiful. They also seem to pop up where you least expect them-on a bicycle wheel that looks like an "O" or wooden boards that form an "E." With approximately 250 images taken by amateur photographers, "Focus: Letters" shines a spotlight on the infinity of ways letters decorate our world.
