Store description
I am a book lover and collector with a literary education (which means I have not read Ulysses, but I have taken classes on it). I am a packrat and aficionado of fine and serviceable used items in the belief that it is time to slow down production and slow down our lives in order to appreciate and share that which already exists.

Terms of sale
I will search out used books which have value, be it intrinsic, symbolic,
aesthetic or amusement, describe them and their condition to the best of my
ability, price them fairly and ship them promptly, carefully packaged, as a rule
by Canada Post. I will accept returns in accordance with the policies of ABE
Books.
This is a hobby business that is cheaper than skiing, and I will run it 'until
all the money is gone' as the farmers say. After that, I will have to switch to
collecting match book covers (no offence to those who do). Penny Clipperton,
