   Monsieur Davies:

   Do you know this quote from that great bibliophile Borges:

   “To arrange a library is to practice, in a quiet and modest way, the art of criticism.”

   If you’re interested in an intimate look at the writing life and/or a very personal perspective on the printed word, I hope you’ll drop by my blog. Google “Beautiful Desolation” or pop in to:

   Best to you,
