What Do You Think About Men With Long Hair

LIBRARIES

Among can-can dancers and other adventures do not come from the magazine is banned in some gargantuan collections such as paper and cathedrals Rising pace. How not to stop to peek behind the opaque glass case, in addition to the books on display, and extend the curious eyes watching. As long as the courageous hand pushes the door firmly and with bold appearance it crosses the threshold in that place full of wonders. There are libraries and bookstores, and without a reckless form of snobbery free, there is no doubt that there is dust and powder, pages and pages. And now some places, perhaps a natural mystical dimension given by fate, they are repositories of extraordinary men and crossroads or simple porters that contain in their three-dimensional alphabet of human knowledge. And then there are these dots on the globe, gaunt and distant, but present over time, mindful of what was at Alexandria - the smoke still wander like a restless spirit. So I the elegant Paris to Shakespeare & Co. has taken the form ' Joyce's Ulysses, thanks to the talented Sylvia Beach that gave way to that legendary charm all collialti the Left Bank. Among the tulips and windmills instead, in the city of Maastricht is one of the finest libraries of the world sort relining a Dominican church of the thirteenth century. If we cross the English Channel and arrive in the land of Albion is a must drop in at Daunt Books in Marylebone High Street, a bookstore specializing in books set in a local chatwiniani in stile edoardiano. Spostandosi poi nella penisola iberica, nella bella Barcellona, troviamo in Calle Elisabets 6 La Central del Raval , nella zona storica della città, dove si ritrovano giovani artisti. Una delle più antiche librerie d'Europa, costruita nel 1869 è la Livraria Lello a Porto, in Rua das Carmelitas 144. A Trieste, in via San Nicolò 30, Umberto Saba acquista e forgia la sua Libreria antiquaria (nella foto). Al suo interno sembra che nulla sia stato ancora spostato o messo in ordine. Pile e pile di tomi, libelli e volumi si susseguono instabilmente con immenso piacere di Bouvard e Pécuchet. Per concludere, oltre Atlantico, nella libreria El Ateneo di Buenos Aires still hear Borges speaks of his love.
