YESTERDAY, FINISHING A BOOK, it was time to find its proper place on the shelf. It's like a library in miniature. Non-fiction here, bios, memoirs & autobios there, fiction separated by country. The just completed book has to be properly placed and, once settled in, becomes a part of the fabric of the good writing that has funneled through my head over the years, like memories that I can pull off the shelf whenever I wish and re-live them, or at least that part of them that I have marked in my first reading so that I can readily find it when the time comes to re-visit it. A good book is like a good friend. It is there for you when you need it, it fulfills an important place in your life. Not incidentally, when you have them all together, shelf upon shelf, lining the wall, it is like your past intellectual life arrayed before you, standing post, a protection from doubt and uncertainty because the answers are all there, in print, attested to by time and the imprimatur of history's admiration. The individual authors may be dead and gone, but they have left a precious gift behind for you to treasure. As long as they are on the shelf, they continue to live.
