Sendb00ks is an publishing project and registered cultural association.
Since 2018 we have been discussing our favourite books with artists and sharing the conversations.
Every month or so we commission an artist to design an artwork to compliment their favourite book, wrapping it around as a limited edition detachable sleeve. We then distribute around two hundred copies worldwide to our network of readers. Sometimes the artist lets us print a poem, short story or essay which can only be read by those who hold the books physically. For over five years we have been handwrapping, posting and signing them in brown recycled paper from our homes.
We want to know what books are on your shelves and bedroom floors, which books changed your lives and which books you go back to every night. We think that the conversations surrounding literature should always be open and accessible to everybody wherever they live and whatever their education.
Sendb00ks is non profit and the artists and people involved are almost always working purely for the pleasure. We feel proud to keep the books at an affordable price to reach those we want to receive them. As such, we all work in less inspiring places to keep this cool project going so donations and books are very appreciated.
Delivery is worldwide and swift. Sharing is encouraged
