Adventures in Stationery: A Journey Through Your Pencil Case by James Ward

2.0

What would be a good history in the trivia of modern objects becomes instead a padded dinner conversation with the author, who is chummy beyond my tolerance, thinking that because we both like pens too much we have many more things in common. Was greatly discouraged, especially in the second half when all the good stories were over and we were left talking about highlighters and Office Space staplers.
