verso

Definitions

• The left-hand page of an open book, or the back of a loose document.
  The verso whispers, a secret dance of ink on the unseen side, where letters find solace in shadow.
  Example: The notes were written on the verso of the letter.
• In bookbinding, the left-hand page of an open book, typically having an even page number.
  Pause on the verso, where the quiet even pages patiently wait beneath their noisier counterparts, ever lending balance.
  Example: The verso usually contains less content than the recto.
