A tiny book that showcases the first and last sentences of 50 books. The juxtaposition of the sentences can lead the reader as a source of inspiration or a way to find curiosities about the way books are structured (for example, Lolita starts and ends with the word Lolita).

Some sentences got special typographic treatments: "One for all and all for one" - a palindrome that appears as the last sentence of The Three Musketeers.
"His face had an expression of calm, as though almost glad the end had come". - All Quiet in the Western Front.
