Summary |
"One morning a librarian finds a reader who has been locked in overnight. She starts to talk to him, a one-way conversation full of sharp insight and quiet outrage. As she rals against snobbish senior colleagues, an ungrateful and ignorant public, the strictures of the Dewey Decimal System, and the sinister expansionist conspiracies of the books themselves, two sentiments prevail: unrequited passion for a researcher named Martin, and an ardent and absolute love for the arts."--Dust jacket, p.[2] |
