Last week the CJ had an article, reprinted from a Connecticut subsidiary I believe, about elaborate libraries in domestic residences. It was an intriguing article, especially for the middle of week in the Louisville Features section. There was a pulled quote about how in an age of media rooms, how rare it is to find a display of books and how, the woman quoted, in the absence thereof, one questions whether one wants these people to be one's friends.
Elitist?
Likely.
Do I concur with the statement?
Indeed.
