What is the strangest book in your library?
I think my weirdest one is The Encyclopedia of Unusual Sex Practices.
It sits in the bookshelf next to Debrett's Correct Form... you never know when you might need to address the holder of a peerage or a political or religious title. |

You have a library! :blink:
We just have various locations scattered around the house with all sorts of books and magazines that no one ever reads. :D |
Re: What is the strangest book in your library?
In my library - which is much reduced as we gave away/sold over 500 books before coming to Aus, and still don't have room - there are lots of quirky books, so it is hard to choose. "The Brain That Changes Itself" is an interesting read- all about neuroplasticity. So is "Pope Joan" - about the only allegedly female pope. I like my 19th century book "50 Great Disasters and Tragedies that Shook the World", and "Tristram Shandy" -an eighteenth century novel very like "Ulysses" but a bit more readable. And for fun there is the book "How to Talk About Books You Haven't Really Read", which I haven't really read, but keep meaning to!!

Now come on, be fair. The rate they are trawling for , and boosting refuges to citizenship; there has to be a few that haven't been infected with the 'green and gold' hubris.
