Ex Libris: Confessions of a Common Reader by Anne Fadiman
Ex Libris: Confessions of a Common Reader

agf, July 11, 2008

Anyone who is passionate about books will love this collection of essays. She shares the pleasures of reading as well as the issues of book management many of us face like shelving and organizing principles. Among other family portraits we learn about how her children have moved from eating books (literally) to eating them up (metaphorically).

This is the most delightful collection I've read in a long time.
