Danchiとブックモービル
I live in a Danchi in a rather inconvenient area.
And there's no library nearby.
However, a bookmobile visits our Danchi every other week
and brings an excellent selection of books.
The person in charge must be a serious book lover.
図書館利用のリズム
I read pretty slowly, even in Japanese.
The bookmobile coming once every two weeks sets the rhythm of my reading.
Usually, I reserve one or two books and pick a few more from the shelves.
The photo below shows three books I'm currently borrowing.
仕事、生活、アートの重要性
One about work, programming.
アートと自己表現
Another about life, cooking.
And the third about art, poetry.
These three things are indispensable to me.
Probably for everyone, they are ultimately the same thing.
Each of them involves the other two.
When I was a child, a bookmobile would come to my neighbourhood.
So I'm feeling a bit nostalgic.
My mother loved reading and would look forward to the bookmobile coming.
