David Macpherson
Bookcases lie in wait. They are teeming with books. Some of them you have read. Some of them you were given as gifts. Other books were bought with enthusiasm and then ignored. Forgotten. Bookcases tell the story of a the owner of the books. They tell you what his interests are and where he buys his books. What stores does he loiter in? This is a memoir of five years of buying and reading and not reading books. David goes through each of the books in the bookcase and tells the story of why he has the book and why he hasn’t read it. It tells you the life of someone who loves and believes in books. You should get this and put this on your bookshelf. Go ahead and complete the circle.
