I empathised with Jo McDougall’s piece at Grasa Mesak about The Joy Of Books, inspired by moving a lot of books from one side of the country to the other and the response of children to receiving books in East Timor.
If I ever move again my books may need their own truck.
But then I read this article about a couple who rescued 350,000 books from being disposed of by burning, but now don’t know what to do with them all.
Every book lovers dream, turned into a nightmare.
Anyway, if you need an illustration about the negative effects of getting too much of what you love, here it is.
