Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - How to decode your orange-peel fortunes is a pamphlet about tiny encounters. It's about the moment the blossom comes into full bloom: perfectly pink, terrifyingly wonderful. It's about going for a walk and seeing an astoundingly white butterfly; it's about noticing roadkill and feeling, just for a moment, life teeter. It's about those moments when the right song comes on at the right time, when nothing else makes sense but your favourite poem, how that can be enough. It's about how entirely good it is when you eat fruit that's so perfectly ripe that everything else in your life glows full of clarity. It's about the time after you've been so sad when you begin to piece a life back together: small beauty by small beauty.The pamphlet also includes a longer piece called 'Conversations with the moon: An essay on poetry', where the speaker talks to the moon, drawing on Amelia Lanyer and Sylvia Plath, luxuriating in the clichéness of it all.

Hardback. Zustand: New. On his death in 1753, Hans Sloane's collection of books and manuscripts was estimated at 50,000 volumes, and, combined with his collected objects, would become the founding core of the British Library and British Museum. Delving into the particular history of this remarkable collection, Alice Wickenden asks wide-reaching questions about archival practices and knowledge production, showing how books function both as and alongside objects. Hers is the first book to bring the theoretical questions and methodologies arising from material culture and book history alongside a full-length study of the founding book collection of the British Library. Each carefully-selected case study raises questions that, though seemingly playful, strike at the heart of past and present practices of collecting and knowledge production: how might books of dried plants be books? Is something a book if nobody can read it? Why collect duplicates? And how, after all, do we actually define a library.…
