Beautifully Bound

"That was a memorable day to me, for it made great changes in me. But, it is the same with any life. Imagine one selected day struck out of it, and think how different its course would have been. Pause you who read this, and think for a moment of the long chain of iron or gold, of thorns or flowers, that would never have bound you, but for the formation of the first link on one memorable day."

"Great Expectations" by Charles Dickens is one of my favorite literary classics.  For those of you who have not read the adventures of Pip, please do!  Although, you can find a quick plot summmary HERE.  This is just one of the novels that Anthropologie is offering beautifully bound for a mere $20.00.  These make beautiful gifts, additions to a library, or brilliant decor when stacked together.  Enchanting and perfect for any lover of literature.  I highly reccommend "Great Expectations."  Other books include "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland" by Lewis Carroll, "Emma" by Jane Austen, and "The picture of Dorian Gray" by Oscar Wilde to name a few.
