"Scribbles in the Margins"offers a glorious antidote to the relentless modern-day information churn. It is here to remind you that books and bookshops can still sing to your heart. Fifty warm and witty short essays of prose poetry are dedicated to the simple joy to be found in reading and the rituals around it: impromptu bookmarks, reading in bed and visiting someone's home and inspecting the bookshelves. "Scribbles in the Margins"is an attempt to fondly weigh up what makes a book so much more than paper and ink.
