What a wonderful and thoughtful post about collecting and the love of books! It’s a great example of collecting not just things, but the knowledge those books carry.
You can even see how the shelves are bending under the weight of that knowledge.

Soon, the internet might let AI rewrite all history and data, and no one will know the truth anymore )) — only you, as the keeper of reliable information, will hold the real knowledge :)
Hope my attempt at a joke worked 😄
