Is print really dead? Or dying? I hope not. Although I admit to being a very good customer of Amazon, it makes me sad to think bookshops may well go the way of record shops. This film is about a Manhattan bookseller who has relocated his store to his apartment, kind of like a pop-up shop or secret restaurant. I'd love to pay him a visit - bet it's amazing in there.
Doesn't it look wonderful? If a little smoky.
And Penguin have produced this beautiful animation which looks at the nuances of language, something I think about often when reading translated fiction such as Haruki Murakami.
Sublime.
I suspect I will be lugging my heavy books around for some time yet, while iPad/Kindle users carry their entire library in a lightweight handbag.
Perhaps I should invest in this bag by Pamela Rudgate Designs - available from her Etsy shop.
Oh, and I have been asked to write a guest review for What Sarah Reads, so I will share the link for that one when the time is right.
