Vintage Manguel?a pleasure for his many readers and admirers.??Kirkus Reviews In June 2015 Alberto Manguel prepared to leave his centuries-old village home in France?s Loire Valley and reestablish himself in a one-bedroom apartment on Manhattan?s Upper West Side. Packing up his enormous, 35,000?volume personal library, choosing which books to keep, store, or cast out, Manguel found himself in deep reverie on the nature of relationships between books and readers, books and collectors, order and disorder, memory and reading.
