Unused Ultralingua icon concept

I figured it was time to put something up on this here dribbble account.

I did this icon concept while I was at Ultralingua for our re-designed iOS dictionary app. We ended up going with something different, but I still liked something about this idea (and would have liked to clean some parts of it up).

Edit: They ended up going with this: http://blog.ultralingua.com/2012/11/ultralingua-dictionary-icon-before-and.html (and then its revision by The Iconfactory)

Edit again: Added an attached version without the skewed pages.
