Rare & Out of Print Books

Between the aging covers on these shelves, contained in tiny, abstract black marks on sheets of paper, were voices from the past. Voices that reached into the future… to tell her what they knew, what they’d learned, what they’d seen, what they’d felt. Wasn’t that magic?

—Christi Phillips, The Devlin Diary
