I love books. My shelves are bursting at the seams, the books stacked up everywhere. But after all, plenty of room between them to life. Some of the books lovers that are described in this lovely little book, so lovingly, it is different. Books occupy all free space, until the house collapses under the weight.
It is in this book collectors not only passionate reader. Some collect only a passion of collecting to read in search of something special or complete without the thousands upon thousands of books, too. Almost inevitably be
books thieves to the most extreme of this bibliophile too. Whether in convents or in libraries, the books are nowhere safe.
And if one of these passionate collectors faded away, are the heirs to the problem of distributing the books materials.
Alexander Pechmann said engaging and humorous book by the various types of collectors. It reads well, even just in between, because the little stories can be read independently.
An appropriate book for every book fool.
