I like the ideas behind this even though people send him their own imagery. It's a pretty clever way to handle various situations and feelings that aren't often discussed among people.

I like the ideas behind this, going to a place and discovering the people there, and their stories. The images themselves aren't all strong, but overall as a story it all works well together.

I like the text in this set of imagery, it helps to bind more meaning to them.

Creator of the Book: Everything will be ok
From Website:In life we all go through good times and bad times over and over, tirelessly. I went through one of these cycles and transformed it into this book. It was my story but very well could it be yours. "everything will be ok" is the chronicle of a magical journey that starts with the emotional collapse that comes after falling into the hole and ends, through a long healing walk, with the assumption that after all, and whatever happens, life is always worth the struggle and it can actually be pretty funny. Through photographs taken over five years, the book is set up to form as a classical narrative structure in three acts that continuously crosses the line between documentary and imaginary together with the line between the personal and the unfamiliar. The ink in the book cover, reacts to temperature so it changes color whenever it is touched, leaving the fingerprints of the reader visible for some time. It is, in a way, a living book that mutates and adapts according to the viewer whose warmth and contact heals the darkness.
I like his statement, its short, and to the point. The idea of having the cover react to the person reading it is an interesting idea as well.
