Beautiful Books



I went into Waterstones today, and now I have no money.

I'm such a sucker for beautiful books. I'm not even a particularly big fan of A Christmas Carol, but I couldn't resist this hardback edition. Rough and oldy-worldy to the touch, without a dust cover. And A Thousand Nights is sumptuous. Someone suggested on Twitter that it might just be the most beautiful book ever made. Look at that page edging.

Any other contenders for the title?
