Bookish Quotes
"The truth is that even big collections of ordinary books distort space, as can readily be proved by anyone who has been around a really old-fashioned secondhand bookshop, one that looks as though they were designed by M. Escher on a bad day and has more stairways than storeys and those rows of shelves which end in little doors that are surely too small for a full-sized human to enter. The relevant equation is: Knowledge = power = energy = matter = mass; a good bookshop is just a genteel Black Hole that knows how to read. "

Abridged. Read by the author on two cassette tapes; approximately 3 hours. HarperCollins 1993; ISBN 000104771x. Received in the mail (extremely well packaged) from cougmax in Federal Way, Washington, USA, for the Audiobooks relay. I liked this book (and both the movies) and I've enjoyed listening to Nick Hornby read on This American Life, so I look forward to listening to this audiobook. (It's perfect for doing cardio at the gym, as each side is about 45 minutes.)From the packaging This is a book about identity, belonging, obsession. About afternoons in the driving rain and bitter cold and glorious, unforgettable goals; getting your head read in Hampstead and punched at Highbury; the dazzling skills of the gods of football and leaving your girlfriend lying fainted on the terraces because Arsenal are about to score. It's about the moments of ecstasy in one man's life. And his pain. And it's about the only true question there is: Which comes first, Football or Life? |
