A Universal History of the Destruction of Books: From Ancient Sumer to Modern-Day Iraq by Fernando Báez

5.0

Perfect book for me - full of a myriad of interesting historical facts while simultaneously tracing the human paradox of the love of learning paired with a seemingly incurable need to eventually destroy everything we create. Made me sad to a degree, as I learned just how much we've lost over time. Still, very highly recommended.
