Brattlecast #72 - Small Pleasures

Brattlecast: A Firsthand Look at Secondhand Books - A podcast by Brattle Book Shop

We’re talking little, tiny, miniature books: books so small you could fit many of them into a single regularly sized book! Books that could go onto the bookshelves of a dollhouse! A Bible the size of your thumbnail! Books so diminutive and light that the booksellers who specialize in them are the envy of the rest of the rare book world, who have to deal with heavy, normal sized books! Books that you would read as you curled up on a ball of yarn with a spool of thread as a table and a thimble full of tea! If this isn’t delightful to you then I don’t even know anymore!
