“Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.”

― Neil Gaiman, Coraline

 

according to the description on the cover, this is the first (ever) illustrated edition of J.K. Rowling's "Harry Potter and the Philosophers's Stone" ... and the illustrations are such a beautiful work of art by Jim Kay (but they wouldn't fit into a MM frame ; ))

Siempre he imaginado que el Paraíso debe ser una especie de biblioteca

Reading the series as a teenager and playing with light. I was sixteen years old and had just started using a Canon Reflex.

Good friends, good books, and a sleepy conscience: this is the ideal life.

A few of the books displayed in the library at Attingham Park, Shrewsbury.

"Explored" on June 4, 2009. #12

Sher Mandal, the library of second Mughal ruler, Humayun, is believed to have been built five centuries back.

From contemporary documents it is learnt that Humayun fell on the stairs while descending and died.

Another de Chirico inspired laneway shot. The cyclist must be a booklover checking out the portable library. www.flickr.com/photos/luminosity7/52280306716/in/dateposted/

Quote from Gertrude Stein from the collection of Tender Buttons

Ve her şey yetişti gene

Kahverengi bir çarşambadan

Sapsarı bir cumartesiye

Continuing with my more people-oriented portrait of New York. How much more 'people' can you get than an outdoor, Summer, vegetable market ? Lower Broadway meets 14th Street in a distinctive New York City park, the west and north side of which becomes that farmers' market.

 

Just 2 streets south of here on Broadway at East 12th is the famous "Strand" bookstore. "18 miles of books" a sign says on the store front. I spent over 4 hours in there and could've probably burned up a couple more. It's an astounding universe all it's own. A booklovers paradise.

Una rica merienda y una buena lectura.What else?

#elmercaderdelibros #luiszueco #books #booklover #librosymaslibros #lecturas2021 #whatelse #merienda

This room wasn’t built to store books. It was built to honor them.

Floor-to-ceiling shelves wrap around the walls like a fortress of paper, topped by a gallery that turns reading into something almost ceremonial. The dark wood paneling, the carved details, even the stained-glass window catching the daylight — everything says this library once belonged to a world where knowledge had weight, where learning was something you could enter and physically surround yourself with.

And yet the scene on the floor tells the opposite story. Pages and fragments scattered across the rug like fallen leaves. A few books abandoned face-down, as if even they gave up trying to be found. The leather sofa still sits there, waiting, but the silence has shifted: not the calm silence of concentration — the hollow silence of something that has been left behind.

The globe beside the couch is the perfect symbol. It’s a reminder of a time when discovering the world meant turning pages, following lines on a map, slowly building a picture in your head. Today we carry the world in our pockets, but that immediacy comes at a price: knowledge becomes fast, endless, and strangely disposable. We don’t keep it the same way. We don’t live with it. We scroll past it.

Rooms like this feel like monuments to a different rhythm. To patience. To depth. To the idea that understanding was worth the time it demanded. Many of the titles on these shelves may no longer matter in a practical sense — outdated reference works, forgotten editions, knowledge replaced by updates and search bars — but the space itself still matters. Because it shows what we used to believe: that books were not content, but legacy.

Not today, today is grey in many ways!

When I first rezzed the Harwich set out, I was amazed. I knew from the pictures that it was going to be pretty, but I was surprised and delighted with the level of detail in the textures. I'm a total texture snob, so I girly-squealed, I admit! Definitely expect to see more of LouChara's Designs in all my posts!
