Terry this intrigues me; please explain it. I may be missing something obvious, but I am missing it nonetheless.

Ahh thank you for that Terry. Appears I was actually curious about all the right things :)

It is intended to leave questions; who scrawled on the book, the reader, the publisher, or someone else? The book is new and unread; it remains unread as the cover is closed, but the seal has been broken. Who or what needs saving? What is the title of the book? A metaphor for self-censorship.
