In an informational nation full of online mediums and glossy magazine disinterest, some are still left lost for words. Momentarily giddy, we hail a return to the tome, paperback and comic. Saturated in craftsmanship, the book is parent to two wise children – information and conversation.
If Lennon was inspired by The Beano, Morrison by Blake and Wolfe by Leary, there is something to be said for revisiting the stale scent of pages.**Amazonian giants aside, the classics are better read when pre-loved and recycled. We support the leave-a-book-behind philosophy, local book keepers, marketeers and enviro initiatives who professionally provide well-kept words for your pleasure.
Be you an omnivorous or bourgeois reader, dig vignettes of prose, painted words or father verse, the literati is free to join and totally sexy.
