A review by ridaakhtar_
The Clothing of Books by Jhumpa Lahiri

4.0

'... books" come to stand for various episodes in our lives, fpr certain idealisms, follies of belief, moments of love. Along the way they accumulate our marks, our stains, our innocent abuses - they come to wear our experiences of them on their covers and bindings like wrinkles on our skin."

Richard Baxter as quoted by Lahiri
