World Book Night 2012

More info here.

C has been a "passionate volunteer", giving away 24 of these. Looking forward to reading this one, fits in with my recent visits to Nuremberg and Auschwitz I think.

LadyFindhorn and The People Twitcher had better be impressed. The only books I have read in recent months have been photographic. I even managed to find a complimentary piece of fabric to lay the book on.

The back cover reads :-
"This book is a gift. It is one of a million which is being given as part of World Book Night 2012 to spread the joy and love of reading. You can enjoy it and pass it on and still keep it with you. All you have to do is read it. Once you have, the story is yours forever.

World Book Night is a celebration of books and reading held on April 23, the international day of the book, which sees 20,000 passionate volunteers across the country give copies of one of 25 specially chosen, brilliant books within their communities.

Please try this book. We think you're going to love it."
