When I read about Shelly Jackson's new project--to "publish" a story by tattooing each of its 2,095 words onto the body of a different person--I thought what a great idea, and I wondered if it might actually be telling us something about the direction books are going. As the digital book begins to emerge--glorious, ephemeral, and electric--are we going to feel compelled to make something even more intimate and rarified as counterpoint?
