Ive been reading a remarkable novel, HISTORY OF THE RAIN, by the Irish writer, Niall Williams. This bit I found yesterday, about books as artifacts, is especially nice: The first time I opened one I felt indecent. I love the feel of a book. I love the touch and smell and sound of the pages. I love the *handling*. A book is a sensual thing. You sit curled in a chair with it or like me you take it to bed and its, well, enveloping.
