About Me
- lamplight books
- Seattle, Washington, United States
- established in 2003,located in the heart of the Pike Place Market, this little tiny shop has books of second hands and eyes, sometimes with the coffee stain circle on the cover, sometimes not.
the photo i borrowed to go with the body and the onion, comes from "nouveau petit larousse illustre'" a 1934 french dictionary which depicts, on its cover, a woman-liberty style- blowing on a dandelion and the saying goes: je seme a tout vent-I plant seeds towards all the winds. When you open this beautiful book another saying recites:un dictionnaire sans exemples est un squelette-a dictionary without examples is a skeleton.
