We sorta have that, but it's marginal. Is the subject enhanced by the bokeh of the background? This is more like a shallow DOF shot than a bokeh shot. And in my mind the background definitely detracts from the foreground ;)

The short definition of Bokeh from KenRockwell.com, which I am using for voting on this challenge: "Bokeh describes the rendition of out-of-focus points of light." Marginal bokeh possible at the far edges of the book, but that's reaching. Is the subject enhanced by the bokeh of the background? I don't feel this meets the challenge. And unfortunately the shot itself isn't particularly inspiring or grabbing.
