There was a postal packet on my chair when I arrived home today. What's that, I thought.

"Must be one of those thousand-dollar books I've ordered from the States." I quipped to Dolores.

I carefully open the package. "Encoulez-moi! C'est l'Oxford Companion to Beer!"*


Not sure of the hows and whys.

I shouldn't need to explain this to my regular readers, but I'm not "dissing" the book the with that photo. My sad, sad,sad, desire to preserve the dusk jacket is the reason for its removal. I'll be laminating it later.

A seductively beautiful book. Especially for a book fetish like me.

I'll be leaving it downstairs.
