Abstract

Book review of Leah Price's book, Unpacking My Library: Writers and Their Books, examining its tension between a sentimental attachment to collections of well-used books and serious reflection on the meaning of personal libraries.  The review draws out the impliclations for the book art field and areas ripe for further analysis.
