Rumpus Book Club“Where the hell are my books?”
“My father’s lifelong relationship with books mirrored Hugh Hefner’s relationship with bimbos; day and night, he always had to have several within reach. He slept with a pile of them on his bed. He drove with a couple of them open on the seat next to him. While traveling, someone, usually the smallest in the family, had to trail him with a book bag as if it were the President’s nuclear football.”
An older but no less touching essay by Finn-Olaf Jones about his bibliophile father: “My Father’s Library.”
