Subject: Re: Book collecting, "a deeply boring trade" by Mithrennaith on 2010/6/28 17:14:34 Oo, That Awful Mr. Wilson ![]() Well, I didn’t think of myself as a collector for a long time. I was just interested in reading everything Tolkien wrote I could lay my hands on, and useful books about his writings, with emphasis on all things "Middle-earth related". From studying Arda, it went to studying developments of the texts, and look at my bookshelves now ... I think Mr. Menon mistakes the excesses for the essentials of collecting. |
