Surreal to see this intimate moment with a man of status whom I've never known personally. His seniority is positively striking. Far be it from me as a stranger to remark on this- what draws my attention are the parallels between him and my father, who was quite advanced in age. Seniority becomes a reflection of how we have spent our time: proper for the body, and proper in seniority. Proper for the mind, proper in seniority. Reaching this age is only one of life's many challenges. Another challenge, I've learned, is to remain at our 'most able' until the end.

This is stunning. Though it appears I’m 9 years too late

The Folio Society books are expensive. Particularly these limited editions especially one this big. But one only requires a job and a great love of books to add one to your library. The owner may or may not be an asshole, but that is a separate issue entirely. I own a couple other FS limited editions and I am not rich. Whether or not I'm an asshole depends on who you ask. I have the Letterpress Shakespeare of Hamlet for example. It was an immense amount of money for me, but I wanted a copy of a favourite work of literature in this format. Some own ALL of the Letterpress Shakespeare and that would require affluence.

wow where can i purchase a copy!

I think the whole statement starting a few seconds earlier is… “He’s very good on feet, Edward Lear.” But the “Edward” is a bit broken into two parts.

Badoni?.
