Books...

All good books are alike in that they are truer than if they had really happened and after you are finished reading one you will feel that all that happened to you and afterwards it all belongs to you; the good and the bad, the ecstasy, the remorse, and sorrow, the people and the places and how the weather was. * Ernest Hemingway

I like, when I visit people, to see in their flats what they are fond of. And I'm always somehow moved, when people love books. Surroundings with stories, imagination and thoughts, when you can see that those books are being read, have their own special beauty... Aren't you curious too, to find out what people read? What are they interested in? Their favourite book/author/genre? Does somebody like poetry, or write themselves? Books are so much more than just paper...

To feel most beautifully alive means to be reading something beautiful, ready always to apprehend in the flow of language the sudden flash of poetry. * Gaston Bachelard
