Flight over Convenience Store
One of my favourite times of the year is when UofT colleges have their annual book sale.
First-Order Confession: One of my least-guilty guilty pleasures is buying old books (–I wish I’d use the library more!). Second-Order Confession: One of my more-guilty guilty pleasures is bookshelf-virtue-signalling.
To prevent the regression of my better guilty pleasures to its lesser form, I tell myself upon purchasing such books that I must read them all. I am maybe 20% successful; and even less if you include the books from last year’s book sale that I haven’t started.
This blog post will be a reflection on the dominant themes in four books of such books.
