Process documentation of a typographic composition.
Guidelines: One short quote from a novel I enjoyed, one font, one font size, no additional color beyond black text and white background, active negative space.
"He was reading Leopardi and had landed on a few verses that were impossible to translate. We translated the passage into English, then from English to ancient Greek, then back to gobbledygenglish to gobbledygitalian. Leopardi's closing lines of "To the Moon" were so warped that it brought bursts of laughter as we kept repeating the nonsense lines in Italian--when suddenly there was a moment of silence, and when I looked up at him he was staring at me point-blank, that icy, glassy look of his which always disconcerted me."
- André Aciman, Call Me By Your Name
