The 1966 Folio Society edition of Erich Maria Remarque's 1929 novel 'All Quiet on the Western Front' from my parents' bookshelves.
I was privileged to read this as a teenager. It changed my view of rights/wrongs/war forever.
Lithographs by Charles Keeping.

I have quite a few beautiful illustrated old #FolioSociety #books but not bought from there for years. (btw Apologies for the hashtags - I'm very new to Mastodon and trying to figure out how best to use it and how to find interesting people to follow.)

Probably my favourite book by @neilhimself.
This version is the wonderful Folio Society edition, and it just arrived home. Magic!

#mytopshelf Actual top shelf, which has not been dusted in 20 years 😭. Plus a toppiest, if ostentatious, shelf of books. (#FolioSociety is ever my weakness.)
