Why Must Read Accidentally Wes Anderson?
I have been a fan of the @accidentallywesanderson Instagram account for a few years, so when I learned a book was in the works I ordered a few copies as gifts for the design-lovers in my life. The books have started to arrive (along with my own copy) and it knocked my socks off! I knew that the images that "made the cut" would be stellar. What surprised me was the insightful, witty text that accompanies each photo. INCREDIBLE. The stories are well-researched and much more in-depth than what is on the daily Instagram account. It's wayyyy more than a "pretty coffee table book", though it is that too :) This is the best gift under $50, hands down. I'll be exploring and coming back to this one regularly. I still have 6 more sections to read and I'm enthralled. Kudos to everyone involved. P.S. I am updating this review after seeing a mention about losing images in the middle of the binding. I disagree that this is a problem. This book has special lay-flat binding. You just need to... open the book the full way ;) Added some photos of 2-page spreads so you can see.
