Packing My Library: An Elegy and Ten Digressions by Alberto ManguelMy rating: 2 of 5 stars
The author riffs about books, given an impending move requiring his large library to be packed. His ruminations cover the physical book, and also book’s meanings. He also delves into history and libraries and organizing. It’s like one of those late nights shooting the breeze in college with buddies, but with an intellectual with one thing on his mind….books. I found the audiobook pleasant as background, but it didn’t draw me in deeply. It had its moments.
