Fun post by Terri Farley at Wabi Sabi West:

Speaking of books, mull over this question the next time you can't fall asleep: If our civilization changed so horribly that the only books which lived on were those memorized and recounted by a single reader, which book would you BE so that it wouldn't die?

What book is she talking about? Does anyone know? (It's a serious question, not a quiz--I don't recognize the book, but would love to read it, I think.) Anyway, interesting question, isn't it? Right off the top of my head, a few of my favorite books in the world are Anne Tyler's "Ladder of Years," Neil Gaiman's "American Gods," and Connie Willis' "Doomsday Book."

Fun question to think about.

(I do Terri Farley's website for her, but she's in charge of the blog. Yes, I could ask her, and if no one answers me here in the comments, I will!)
