I try to list all flaws, and I take a lot of pictures
in case I may forget to note a name on
flyleaf, or underlining, or cracked hinge
for example.WE ALWAYS COMBINE SHIPPINGHere you can enjoy the actual printed book.
It has a history of its own and a character that
you just cannot get electronically.Books fall open, you fall in,
delighted where you\'ve never been;
hear voices not once heard before,
reach world on world through door on door;
find unexpected keys to things locked up beyond imaginings.What might you be, perhaps become,
because one book is somewhere?
Some wise delver into wisdom, wit,
and wherewithal has written it.True books will venture, dare you out,
whisper secrets, maybe shout
across the gloom to you in need,
who hanker for a book to read.
