Books


Recommended readings (based on today's mood)*

  1. Moonstone - Wilkie Collins
  2. Rebecca - Daphne du Maurier
  3. Prisoner of Zenda
  4. Three Musketeers
  5. The Flip Side


* All works of fiction, falling into no particular genre, not the best five books in the world but off the top of my mind and each a pleasure in itself.


Books are a pleasure beyond all other pleasures. You can live a million lives do a million things feel a million ways all curled up in bed with a different book each night. And television... anyone who says that it can replace books has less than half a brain. When you read a story in a book, the characters are your own, as you see them...your interpretation, the world of the book becomes yours, its a much much more intimate experience.

The smell of old books, out of a shelf, unused for ages...

A treasure trunk hundreds of years old- lost and found, about to be opened

The smell of new books, crisp, waiting to be devoured

A dream about to be dreamt.... unknown, inviting
