A Beautiful Calendar for Anyone Interested in Literature
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This is a beautiful desk accessory for anyone interested in reading or writing. It's a desk calendar, but it's not year-specific, so you may use it as a perpetual reference for birthdays, anniversaries, special events, etc.More valuable than just for its function, however, this book is marvelously attractive. From cover to cover, it's chock-full of beautiful drawings, photographs and sketches of, by and about famous writers, their novels, stories and characters, etc.Of course, most significantly, perhaps, is that each day is filled with the births and deaths of famous writers, important dates in literature, facinating historical facts, and humorous quotes, all of which are indexed in the back along with information on the sources for the images and quotes.Without a doubt, this is a beautifully compiled book--perfect as an attractive and functional gift for any writer or reader.
