on books

by wschnell

I was in Adrasan on a backpacking trip – don’t care where in the world that is. Going south, the last paved road stops after a kilometer. Going on another 10 kilometers through the wilderness would bring you to the lighthouse.

The restaurant had WLan, and I could load a book written by Epicur, a greek philosopher onto my kindle.

Now combine that with the new kindle flat rate and you have the biggest library of the earth available wherever you are. No more asking yourself: will they deliver the parcel to China as well?

Leaving the big cities becomes a lot more attractive this way.
