What is better, to have a Tsundoku pile or line up your books along a shelf? My Tsundoku are on the top of my chest of drawers, but I have also a smaller collection on a pile inside a bookcase. I…Continue

We are self isolating! Soon may be obligatory. At last I shall work through my pile of To Read Books!
Joining this group already relieves me. Thank you for this initiative, Ficus.
Yes, but no doubt a lousy job on my part. They looked like photocopies (the paper can't have been good enough for one thing) and get used very rarely. Those in your photo look exquisite. Acrylic transfer turned out somewhat better for me than my version of copies.
I don't imagine it will help -- but -- before I discovered HP 4x5" glossy photopaper [which they make for refilling their photobooth printers] I used to print cards on 4x6", unlined index cards. both inkjet and laser printed.
Does this mean you'll be sending us chocolate devils food cake? One can always hope.
I am not reading Ulysses on my own, Nancy, but with the help of many that have written about it and published in the Internet. The beauty of the tablet is that I can jump from the ebook to the net in a click and back. The inconvenience is when I fall asleep and the tablet falls on my nose. Ouch!
MInd you, the book is probably just as heavy.
Oh, Bradford's entropy almost got lost below! I had to google to remind myself of its non-physics meaning: "lack of order or predictability; gradual decline into disorder." It IS a great artist. Often the heart of art, in my book.
That's a wonderful way to describe it, Mike. I can't claim such carefulness, as a lot of experimenting goes on with painting, folding, tearing pages. Any part of the book still semi-intact when I find it tends to quickly fall off by itself during all that. I keep everything, though, and have a beautiful supply of parts of covers + spines and innards. I truly love that stuff but only occasionally use it, maybe because I just can't keep my hands off the paints.
Glad something good, reading, came of childhood sickness, Martha. That you're reading Ulysses on your own is impressive. I read/studied it in a seminar in school and needed all the help I could get via the thoughts of others as we went through it. The nearly worn-out copy is still on my shelf after all these years. It has lived in 9 apartments and 3 houses.
