"I had just taken
to reading. I had just discovered the art of leaving my body to sit impassive
in a crumpled up attitude in a chair or sofa, while I wandered over the hills
and far away in novel company and new scenes... My world began to expand very
rapidly,... the reading habit had got me securely."
H. G. Wells

Beautiful quotation! This is why we all need the TD bank green wing-back in our studies...
It's funny, Karyn, but I've been looking for a big comfy chair and footstool for my living room - just for me to read in!
