Description
"The characters in the delightful stories collected here range all the way from the ink-stained medieval monks in Umberto Eco's 'The Name of the Rose' to the book-besotted denizens of Ali Smith's 'Public Library and Other Stories.' In these pages readers are invited to enter the interior lives of librarians in Lorrie Moore's 'Community Life' and Elizabeth McCracken's 'Juliet' and are ushered into a host of unusual libraries, including the infinite rooms of Jorge Luis Borges's 'The Library of Babel' and a secret library in Helen Oyeyemi's 'Books and Roses'"--,Provided by publisher.
