"There's a hunger about book people, about anyone who gets involved with old books. To follow a path so peculiar, with so few opportunities, and with no real prospect for wealth or prestige, I think you have to have a fickle relationship with rationality."
Oliver Darkshire
This looks wonderful. Is this one of your clients? Or a book you happily stumbled upon? I, too, love old books. Which is why I got expelled from the library at Christchurch, Oxford as a youngling.
ReplyDeleteOne must first acquire a relationship with rationality before one's relationship can become fickle.
ReplyDeleteRare books AND a punny title. Who could ask for more? Right up my alley and then some!
ReplyDeleteA memoir due for release in late Jan in Australia (I was intrigued enough to google). Sounds fascinating and has been added to my watchlist with Booktopia (our local online bookstore).
