“"It’s not as if I don’t have anything to read; there’s a tower of perfectly good unread books next to my bed, not to mention the shelves of books in the living room I’ve been meaning to reread. I find myself, maddeningly, hungry for the next one, as yet unknown. I no longer try to analyze this hunger; I capitulated long ago to the book lust that’s afflicted me most of my life.” IfsTryingLongBookNextRoomsBedHungerLustHungryLong AgoTowersShelvesLiving RoomThe Next OnePerfectly GoodUnread BooksAnalyze This Author:Lewis Buzbee
“I've had many more thousands of books in my possession than my shelves at home would indicate. At one time, I tried to keep them all, but that quest soon became impossible; I now only keep the ones I'm sure I'm going to reread, the ones I'm definitely going to read before I die, and the ones I can't bear to part with because of an aesthetic or emotional attachment.” I CanBookHomeDiesImpossibleEmotionalBearsPossessionAttachmentOne TimeAestheticQuestsShelvesBefore I Die Author:Lewis Buzbee
