Through the Magic Door
Through the Magic Door | Arthur Conan Doyle
2 posts | 1 read | 1 reading | 1 to read
Through the Magic Door (1907) is an essay by Arthur Conan Doyle: his subject is the charisma and charm of books. Doyle invites readers to enjoy the greatest minds of all times through what they have left behind and argues that, when we read, the selfishness and hopelessness of the world can be left behind.

In honor of Dr Doyle's birthday, I think I'll read something I found recently at my used bookshop. (1909 edition)

"It is a great thing to start life with a small number of really good books which are your very own."
