The flyleaf contained in the Nineteen Fifties version comprises the signature of 1 Sandra Hoksch, who acquired it for Christmas in 1955. Sandra, or one of many e-book’s later house owners, rigorously marked each e-book within the collection she had learn (picture 3). I really like to search out readers’ marks in books, and I consider the individuals who wrote in our books like ghosts on the web page, studying over our shoulders, ready for our snort, our scream of pleasure or terror. Sandra won’t be a literal ghost, and if she sees this, I encourage her to contact us! However both approach, her childhood be aware connects her materially to our Twenty first-century library and its readers.
