Description

If Bookshelves Groan If bookshelves groan It must be with pleasure... Imagine being weighed down By beauty and truth in print ... Let us pray Buckled by Joyce and Prévert Testing the strength of your muscles ... What delicious agony Strain my tendons, Petrarch With all your mental Laura lust. After all It is what one carries that counts.
