New old books
Thanks to Richard for giving me these gorgeous, well thumbed, pieces of art. I haven't begun reading them yet but love them anyway as little bits of ephemera which have lasted the distance (I know some people say paperbacks shouldn't be kept, but I really like that they manage to keep going despite their frailty, and wear their age proudly not like some haughty preserved hard cover) and also as a gesture of friendliness from a local while I was away from home in Montreal recently and looking for local bookshops. He couldn't recommend anything in particular so passed on some books instead. How cool is that?
