A kind friend recently presented me with this fine tome.
As I go through it I'm discovering lots of "old friends"
no longer present on my shelves. They've been passed on
to family members, friends, booksales...
It would be lovely to keep all the books you encounter
in life. Unfortunately in my case I'd need a fine bank
balance to afford a bigger house to hold all those I'd
love to have kept. Perhaps I should've become a librarian...
