That's where I found my hardcover edition of Là-bas by Huysmans.

It was in fantastic condition (especially considering it was an 1896 edition) other than the slightly musty smell, but I got rid of about 90% of that by sealing it in a small box with a LOT of charcoal for two weeks. It's now wedged between a Zola book and the complete works of Oscar Wilde in my library, which is very dry.
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

Ummaka qinnassa nīk!

I hate to come back to that now-ubiquitous point of contention. . .

Why is it figuring pounds if it's from a seller in New Mexico?

You can save even more by not buying e-readers or books.
