getting their books read quickly.Argentinean independent publishers Eterna Cadencia are publishing a collection of short stories by new South American authors using special ink that slowly disappears once it comes in contact with sun and air，completely vanishing within 2 months after the book has been opened.This makes for an interesting approach to motivating book buyers to read books more quickly，giving firsttime authors the attention they need to survive.“The Book That Cant Wait”tackles an important problem for new authors：How to get readers.The creative independent publishers teamed up with DRAFTFCB in the city of Buenos Aires to develop this project.“Books_are_very_patient_objectsWe buy them，and then they wait for us to read them.Days，months，even years.Thats OK for books，but not for new authors.If people dont read their first book，theyll never make it to a second，”says the project coordinator Tito Santana.Thats why Eterna Cadencia，which also runs its own bookstore，has decided to create something different to launch its new authors into the market.It presented its first “The Book That Cant Wait” for the critics and the press last month.The invention is a success.Hundreds of people came to the bookstore to pick up a copy.To help spread the word，they gave away the first edition to customers for free.The very same day it was released，the publishing house claimed that it received thousands of requests for more copies of the book.So it will print a new edition later this month to satisfy the demand.And the best result？This time they have the guarantee that their new authors will be read.The company plans to use the book as a platform for other titles，because they believe there is a lot of literature out there that doesnt deserve to wait on the shelf.And these books wont wait at all.【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。介绍了一种新的印刷方法。为了让读者快速阅读新作者的书，出版商使用一种特制的油墨进行印刷，该油墨印刷的字会在书被打开并暴露在阳光和空气中两个月之内就消失了。41The main purpose of publishing “The Book That Cant Wait” is to_Asell more
