And the imprisoned souls that I most like to free are the obscure ones, the forgotten ones, those books that are gathering dust, those books who hardly leave their tomb, books that are invisible to the general populace. In other words, I love reading books that hardly anyone knows anything about. The older and the more unknown the better. Who knows if the next Moby Dick is just waiting to be discovered!

Thanks for this reply Jonathan. I’d love to see a list of those books you’ve compiled overtime! Most fascinating! – Douglas
