ANYHOOO, here's my TRUE thinking on this great posting today:<br /><br />(1) NOBODY, ESPECIALLY someone as obviously busy as Karl, could EVER read... or probably even spend ten minutes "browsing", every book in there... I suspect it's just a combination of "gift" and "display" "STUFF"... (So there, I said it!)...<br /><br />(2) OPRAH'S & GARBO'S "libraries" are definitely b-o-r-i-n-g & IF they're just for show, it's a b-a-d show!!!<br /><br />(3) DIANE KEATON'S is FAB, and SOOO very much like I would IMAGINE she would have it... It SPEAKS "DIANE" & I LOVE IT!!!<br /><br />(4) Joan RIVERS has a space that simply PROVES that she TALKS more than she READS!<br /><br />(5) And my very DEAREST, MOST BELOVED & WONDERFUL JIMMY STEWART (& it was Gloria's too, obviously) LIBRARY is SOOOO TRULY HONEST and somehow, IMHO, speaks VOLUMES (pardon the pun!) about him/them~ as people AND voracious readers~ and so especially, his interests and what a truly well-read GENTLMAN he was!<br /><br />Gee, that felt good (to be SOOO "honest"!)!

Jimmy Stewart, Frank Sinatra, and Woody Allen have wonderfully appealing rooms. But Karl Lagerfeld? You would have to take the place apart looking for whatever book you had in mind!

Interesting to look at, yes. But I'm a library girl and the books come and go at my house all the time. Sorry, it just seems a little like hoarding to me (you couldn't possibly interested in rereading all those books??)

Brought back memories of my childhood. <br /><br />I took clarinet tutoring privately in the comfort of another Junior High teachers home. His instrument of choice, and I gained great skill and technique under his guidance and teaching. Many times, my dad would be caught in traffic coming to pick me up. The instructor would have me wait in his home library at the front of the home. It resembed Frank Sinatra's. I would lisen to classical music and wonder at all the stories contained in those books. I'm sure I gained more than clairnet practice during those lessons. My love of books and classical music lives on in my own home today!<br />Fondly,<br />PatOn Crooked Creekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04194554531505722292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5763730258323026627.post-90056459714456118462011-01-16T01:18:34.836-08:002011-01-16T01:18:34.836-08:00You are AWESOME!@ I love this post!
