Books and bookstores, reading glasses, a comfortable chair to read in, a warm shawl and a cup of tea.  And most precious are fellow readers with whom we can share our interests and enthusiasms in good conversation.

The perfect holiday for a lifelong reader is one with a stack of books and few distractions. Retiring after three decades as a bookseller, I look forward to reading my way through the stacks and shelves and lists of books waiting for me. This blog will be something of a grab bag or commonplace book of reviews, quotations, notes on the history of books, the contemporary book trade, and anything connected with books and language. Reading is a great pleasure. Thinking and talking about books multiplies and intensifies that pleasure.
