Penelope Lively On not getting rid of books They chart my life. I dont want to sound ponderous, but they chart my intellectual life. They chart everything that Ive been interested in and thought about for the whole of my reading life. So if they went I would, in a sense, lose a sense of identity. They identify me. ... Most of them I shall never read again, but you never know what you may want to go back to. And it does constantly happen to me that theres something that I suddenly think, Oh, Ive got that book, let me just look that up. I do it every day. From NPR All Books Considered
