But, I suppose a lot of the secondhand books I buy, I probably wouldn't have purchased had they not been secondhand, so it probably works out. Plus, new books are a way for me to start the conversation. But again, Lolita, I probably would not have bought new. How's that for a cyclical argument?

I have a copy of the complete works of Shakespeare that someone write very carefully in the margins in, and so does 1984.
