By The Book - A reader's Guide to Life by Ramona Koval ( as new)

By the Book is respected literary journalist Ramona Koval's love letter to books and writing, about reading and living, and about the authors that have written themselves into her life: from Oliver Sacks to Oscar Wilde, Christina Stead to Grace Paley. It is about learning to read (and asking her mother to buy her a copy of the Kama Sutra), about love and science, about poetry and travel and falling in love.

By the Book is quintessentially Ramona: warm, bright, erudite—unmissable.
