Alan Bradley Quotes
Anne Of Green Gables Was Cuddled Up Next To Huckleberry Finn; The Hunchback Of Notre Dame Was Wedged Tightly Between Heidi And Little Women; And Nicholas Nickleby Leaned In A Familiar Way Against A Girl Of The Limberlost. None Of The Books Were In Alphabetical Order, Which Made It Necessary To Cock My Head Sideways To Read Each One Of The Spines. By The End Of The Third Shelf I Had Begun To Realize Why Librarians Are Sometimes Able To Achieve Such Pinnacles Of Crankiness: It's Because They're In Agony. If Only Publishers Could Be Persuaded, I Thought, To Stamp All Book Titles Horizontally Instead Of Vertically, A Great Deal Of Unpleasantness Could Be Avoided All Round.
