Free bookshelf
Free bookshelf, must be able to pick up. I'm happy to help load it on site, but otherwise you're on your own.
35 inches long, 38 inches tall, 3 shelves each 11 inches tall.
Painted white, but could probably use a re-paint.
I am now the proud owner of an old bookshelf. The top piece is not properly attached to the body, and it is covered in soot. The white paint is old. But it holds all my books. I can finally start reading again.
I am sure you realize that books piled up in a plastic storage bin are just as readable as ones arranged neatly on wooden shelves. I realize that too. But there was something important missing before.
Books piled in a plastic bin feels melancholic. Vaguely remorseful. There is a faint aura of having given up, of unreached goals... of forgotten memories.
Books standing tall in a bookshelf - however battered - are stately and dignified. Humble, but dignified.
Here's to a month of getting back into it!
