Advice: Never lose your place in a book by gluing it open.
The Sage has no patience for fiddly bookmarks or folded corners. His solution? Permanently preserve your page with the judicious use of glue. True, the book may never close again, and you might end up reading it like a concertina, but at least you’ll never wonder where you left off.
Of course, there are drawbacks. Your bookshelf will resemble an art installation, libraries may revoke your membership, and carrying your favourite novel on the bus becomes a balancing act. Still, The Sage insists that real wisdom is about commitment — and nothing says commitment like bonding agent across the spine.
Besides, he argues, books are meant to change you. If you can’t change the pages, perhaps it’s only fair they change the furniture.
