My book arrived in record time (it shocked me when it arrived so soon after ordering) and was beautifully packaged. If it didn't go via DHL it would never have made it through the Australia Post system unscathed!!! Thank you!
If this website is the closest I ever come to shopping in NY, NY, it has been a pleasure. I have checked the store on-line, and you may have to block me out -- it looks very tempting. It may replace my childhood fantasy of getting locked in our small town library. One little old lady and sevens floors of old books--Heaven. Thanks!
