In her beautiful book about the Los Angeles Public Library fire, Susan Orlean captures the magic of what libraries can offer. She describes walking through the empty library in Downtown L.A., not a soul in sight, and feeling connected to all the different voices represented on the millions of pages that surround her.Books, in this way, are wonderful friends.✉️  Sign up for the Daily Stoic email: https://dailystoic.com/dailyemail?
