Circular book bound using only the skills that women were allowed to practice in the Victorian bindery: folding, punching, sewing and headbanding, with no glue or leatherwork. Corset boning was used to stabilize the structure and reference the constraints placed on women in this era, and the circular form relates to the repetitive nature of this type of bindery work.
