The most wonderful book about the acts of reading and writing and the production of books as physical objects. I'll be buying a copy for my shelves.

A Joyous Exploration…
A remarkable history of the written word - a journey from the Ancient World onwards as the history of books in all their glory is explored in beautifully done and lyrical prose. This is no flat historical study - this is a joyous exploration, woven with enthralling tales, both sensitive and astute from a writer clearly enamoured with her subject. A masterful feat.
