The Call of the Wild, White Fang and Other Stories by Jack London
book, borax, 6 ¼ x 7 x 3 inches
Banned in Italy and Yugoslavia and burned in bonfires in Nazi Germany in the late 1920’s and early 1930’s because London’s books were considered “too radical.”
Disclaimer
The crystallized banned books are intended to slowly alter in appearance over time. The crystals transform from translucent to opaque while the sculptural form of the book remains intact. In order to preserve the slow rate of change, I suggest the sculpture be kept (as best as possible) in a consistent climate with low humidity and normal room temperature or cooler, as well as away from direct heat and sunlight. Individual crystals may shed when handled.
*Because each crystallized banned book is handmade and, therefore, one of a kind, we cannot offer refunds.
