Sonder is a word created by the author of The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows by John Koenig. Koenig defines Sonder as; n. the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own
In this book, I created each page with a letterpress, and gave each phrase as much purpose on each page as I could. The term Sonder to me is a universal feeling, that once I truly understood, things in my life became a lot less intimidating.
This handmade book is basically my love letter to Sonder.
