The hero wakes up in a hotel room, far from home. He has a stack of postcards with him that will help him remember who he is, where he has been and who he loved. This is the premise of Norwegian writer Thorbjørn Oppedal's novel Paper Flyers, a story of fictional travel, amnesia and love in the era of Lonely Planet guidebooks.
The book is compiled from short notes about sleepless nights, the Japanese paper art of kirigami, padlocks, a knife that cuts flesh, about blizzards and jazz, about mysterious manuscripts and those rare moments when two people can understand each other without words. This book is a real ode to postcards, forming a cycle invisible to the world and representing an unrecognized art for lovers and collectors of all sorts of oddities. The highlight of the book is the illustrations by Svein Storksen, reflecting the narrative through associations and created using the technique of analogue collages from postcards from around the world.
