Books, like biblical cairns, mark my journey through life; they’re evidence I’ve been that way; they’re the flavour and touch of my life. Look back and you’ll see where I’ve come from. Sit, reflect awhile, turn a page or two and you’ll catch a glimpse of where I’m heading, the possible paths. Gathering books around me is like a person surrounded by friends, their voices those that enliven, challenge, teach, provide colour and texture ones life.
- Paul Fromont
