So there are, like, video games that play with the fact that you're looking at a screen, or messing with a controller. There are movies or TV that do similar things. Not enough books play with the physical medium they're in (e.g. House of Leaves). It would be cool to have more books not just user paper and ink as an incidental delivery mechanism for ideas, but as a part of the art.
@benhamill There's "Tree of Codes" made by Jonathan Safran Foer. He cut away parts of an existing book, "The Street of Crocodiles" by Bruno Schulz, to create a new story.
@benhamill 30,000 copies according to the publisher! They're hard to find and kind of expensive now, but when the book first came out it was $20 on Amazon.

@Ashdroid Wow, though. $165 on Amazon right now. Yeesh. That's a heck of a return on $20!
@Ashdroid Wow! That's aggressively reasonable.
