Book Maze

 Ten foot tall books enclose a person inside of them.

The walls of the maze are oversized books. Ten feet high and six feet wide. They stand upright and some are flat open to make a wall and others half opened to make a corner. The pages fan out, and flap as you move through the maze.

You could stick around for a minotaur too. http://editorial.de...-bookgara1103/1.jpg

       Some used bookstores feel like this although they use normal size books.   

       Would the type be 3 inches tall and the paragraphs yards high?

       I would bun this if you'd somehow incorporated the narrative maze. As it is, it's just "make a maze out of arbitrary large objects".

       The minotaur was in a labyrinth, not a maze.

       When is a labyrinth not a maze?   

       Labyrinths are unicursal.

       Hold on, I have to look up that word.   

       Ah, good word.   

       "The labyrinth has often been confused with a maze. A maze is like a puzzle to be solved. It has twists, turns, and blind alleys. It is a left-brain task that requires logical, sequential, analytical activity to find the correct path into the maze and out. On the other hand, the labyrinth has only one path—it is unicursal. The way in is the way out. There are no blind alleys. The path leads you on a circuitous path to the center and out again."

       whew!...
Just about didn't make my something-new-for-the-day today quota.
Thanks [pocmloc]!
