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.

評分曾经在安妮法迪曼的“书趣”中读到,在她生日之际,丈夫带她去逛一家旧书店,回家时双手负担的十九磅旧书的美味,却让她深信比一磅新鲜鱼子酱还要美味十九倍!对于这套价值理论,并非所有人都可以接受认同!正如我宁愿省去买衣服或护肤品的生活费,买上几本自己觊觎已久却略有...
評分书本上有很多让人开眼界的内容,学到不少的藏书相关东西。可是,这本书的译文真心不能算是上乘。前后译名不一致,书籍名称不官方时有发生,有的时候术语也不精确。或许这两个译者,压根就不是藏书人。 但它里面提供了很多国外的藏书指导性著作,不妨想办法都买来看看,获益肯定...
評分在读此书之前,我觉得最有意思的笑话是: Raj: I don't like bugs, okay? They freak me out. Sheldon: Interesting. You're afraid of insects and women. Ladybugs must render you catatonic. 现在我更喜欢安东尼.特罗洛普是维多利亚时代的作家,他白天在邮政局工作,他每天...
