Many thanks to The Daily What for sharing news of the über-cool “Puckman bookcase” created by the Milan designer Mirko Ginepro, un uomo di bell’aspetto himself.

I love how the bookcase has opted to co-exist alongside its electronic kin in unambiguous dominance. Books are the new bitey thing!

All this reminds me of the words of the aptly-named Sir Francis Bacon(!), from his Essays (a new edition of which, by the way, has just been published in the US):

Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested …

Hungry now? LOL! Here, have a cupcake.
