Unpacking My Library: Writers and Their Books spotlights the personal libraries of thirteen favorite novelists who share their collections with readers. Stunning photographs provide full views of the libraries and close-ups of individual volumes: first editions, worn textbooks, pristine hardcovers, and childhood companions. In her introduction, Leah Price muses on the history and future of the bookshelf, asking what books can tell us about their owners and what readers can tell us about their collections. Supplementing the photographs are Price's interviews with each author, which probe the relation of writing to reading, collecting, and arranging books. Each writer provides a list of top ten favorite titles, offering unique personal histories along with suggestions for every bibliophile. Unpacking My Library: Writers and Their Books features the personal libraries of Alison Bechdel, Stephen Carter, Junot Díaz, Rebecca Goldstein and Steven Pinker, Lev Grossman and Sophie Gee, Jonathan Lethem, Claire Messud and James Wood, Philip Pullman, Gary Shteyngart, and Edmund White. 517 3 $aWriters and their books 606 $aAuthors$xBooks and reading 606 $aAuthors, American$xBooks and reading 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAuthors$xBooks and reading. 615 0$aAuthors, American$xBooks and reading. 676 $a028/.9 700 $aSherry$b Michael S., $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01055021 701 $aPrice$b Leah$0711588 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910461717503321 996 $aUnpacking my library$92488084 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02906nam 2200589 450 001 9910480521903321 005 20170822144321.0 010 $a1-4704-0334-X 035 $a(CKB)3360000000464925 035 $a(EBL)3114432 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000976601 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11543625 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000976601 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)11035286 035 $a(PQKB)11491228 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3114432 035 $a(PPN)195416279 035 $a(EXLCZ)993360000000464925 100 $a20011109d2002 uy| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aTriangulations of oriented matroids /$fFrancisco Santos 210 1$aProvidence, Rhode Island :$cAmerican Mathematical Society,$d2002. 215 $a1 online resource (95 p.) 225 1 $aMemoirs of the American Mathematical Society,$x0065-9266 ;$vnumber 741 300 $a"Volume 156, number 741 (second of 5 numbers)." 311 $a0-8218-2769-3 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references. 327 $a""Contents""; ""Introduction""; ""Chapter 1.
