It's "Gratuitous Picture of Your Book Shelf Tuesday!"

The lovely curtain obscures the lovely section up-top that aught to be obscured, whilst giving the kidlings distracting tassels to play :D Everyone wins!

That 'Complete Works of Shakespeare' book-ended on its own, was a 134 years old when I first received it nearly ten years ago. I imagine it's a bit older now.

Do you read from the Shakespeare book? I can imagine you'd have to be real careful handling the book. How did it come into you possession?

An old friend/co-worker snuck it under my desk at work. Which is the safest way to present me with anything it seems, since I freak out when people are being nice to me. I have indeed read from that book of Shakespeare, several times! Why have it if I'm not meant to enjoy it?

It's rare when I do reach for it but I do like to share it and it is a rather durable thing, considering... but then there is a reason why it's shelves very separate and carefully from everything else ^^;

I did notice that the book was away from the rest of the objects on the shelf. Your friend was awesome for doing that for you.
