I decided to take pictures of the beginnings of three books at home.
The first is from Endurance: Shackleton’s Incredible Voyage by Alfred Lansing.
The second is from Maps of Meaning: The Architecture of Belief by Jordan Peterson.
The third is from The Humbling by Philip Roth.
Opening words aren’t always special, but sometimes they are.
