Pickle Me This

June 11, 2007

Unbooks

Though I do love books, I have a particular aversion to books that aren’t actually books. I am unfond of gift books, decorative books, foam books, faking books, and faux books. I do believe that these inferior items unjustly ride on the coattails of a sacred object. And so it was quite remarkable when I fell in love with this treasure up in the Lakes, though the price tag put it out of my league.
I suppose I have a particular aversion to books that aren’t books, unless the book happens to be a teapot.
