There is suggestion that print is dead....apparently you have been mislead !
As a child I would spend hours with my head buried in a book, as I grew it became less so, very little held my attention for long.
Its funny how things turn full circle, with the age of the internet I have discovered the joy of burying my head in a book again...finding people like Nessy and her melodic way of weaving words, leading you astray and introducing you to a time long since past.
I honestly believe I am in love, not with the woman herself as this spot has already been taken, sorry Nessy.....but with her talent for discovering the lost, the hidden and the discrete. Unlike others that have resided in Paris, led you along the garden path then leave you alone....selling you out for financial gain, Nessy guides you, interacts with you...shares her joy of life and all she discovers along the way.
I tend to be a good judge of character and don't believe she will betray any of us that follow her, I hope financial fortune rains down upon her, as I feel her work in this world is justified....she keeps the past alive and assists us in our travels.....taking us to place we would never find alone.
There is a beautiful way in which her words flow, she is like a hint of boeuf bourguignon wafting down from cobbled streets of Monmartre....she will make you stop in your tracks and have you peek into a dusty window to discover an otherwise missed opportunity !
As long there are beautiful hardback books written in a way that makes the heart sing, then I will be there to read them...with a "DO NOT DISTURB" sign written in pen upon my forehead !
Seek her out, follow her and trust me...you will fall in love again...and again !
