#HauntsAndHexes Day 4: This #Werewolf poem was shared by Fats in GatheringBooks back in 2013. We just celebrated our 15 year Blogiversary, it is quite amazing. https://wp.me/pDlzr-6Cj
pickI love books about books. GREAT NOVELS is a well-executed book for what it sets out to be: a visually-driven, accessible introduction to world literature. Its value lies in its ability to demystify, educate, and inspire. It is a fantastic gateway book—a starting point for a deeper journey into literature, not the destination itself. Its approach is like that of a curated museum tour, not a semester course in literature.
Made it to the New York Public Library‘s main branch today! 😍 Saw the lions, a Gutenberg Bible (worth about $25million), an original manuscript with editing notes of Giovanni‘s Room…) 💗💗💗
pickI was intrigued by the intro describing Rosalind Belben's books as hard to read but impossible to forget. After reading this one, I'm not sure I agree with ithat statement. I found this book easy to read. Parts are memorable, but I don't feel it'll be a lingering one for me. Belben writes both plainly and with a poetic quality. Overall, it's a slight pick.
so-so
