That's where I found my hardcover edition of Là-bas by Huysmans. Tom Send a noteboard - 21/04/2011 07:31:38 PM
It was in fantastic condition (especially considering it was an 1896 edition) other than the slightly musty smell, but I got rid of about 90% of that by sealing it in a small box with a LOT of charcoal for two weeks. It's now wedged between a Zola book and the complete works of Oscar Wilde in my library, which is very dry.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

Ummaka qinnassa nīk!
