Lawrence and Nancy Goldstone are both successful novelists. Lawrence Goldstone having won a New American Writing Award for his first novel. The Goldstones live in Westport, Connecticut.
After years of competitive extravagance at birthday time, Lawrence and Nancy Goldstone decided to limit themselves to $20 each, which is how they came to be in possession of a $10 definitive translation of War and Peace, complete with maps of the major battles and fold-out color illustrations. It is also how they eventually came to be the owners of a $650 edition of Dickens's Martin Chuzzlewit. Used and Rare, the Goldstones' tale of the journey from point A to point B, is a joyful celebration of their love of books. Rare-book dealers are a quirky lot; while one might invite you to caress an Adventures of Tom Sawyer worth thousands, another might turn you away altogether for no apparent reason. The Goldstones' enthusiasm is infectious, and, besides offering a lesson in used-book parlance, the pair remind us that for every book there are at least two stories: the one between the covers, and the one beyond the covers.

评分 评分三生有幸,真的摸过宋版书。戴了白手套的双手有点笨拙、有点哆嗦,激动得书名都给忘了,只记得是天禄琳琅《文苑英华》中的一册。“一页宋版一两金”,千万别把这大金砖掉地上喽,赔不起。那还是上世纪90年代的事情,国内的大拍卖行成立不久,好东西不少,识货的大款少,不像...
