Book-Loving Buzzbee

Buzzbee loves his books.  He's a big collector, especially of old books.  He says that his senses are stimulated more by the qualities of these objects from the past, than the sterile webpage on a computer or mobile phone screen:  the print is indented by the weight of the printing machinery used in the old days, the page edges of some are roughly cut, the page papers and binding textures are varied and add to the tactile experience, and so page-turning itself involves the senses more.  We see him below with a few of his old favourites.  Some might call Buzzbee a sentimental old stick-in-the-mud, but Castaway Characters feel a kind of brotherhood with objects threatened with extinction.  So, good on ya Buzzbee.  We get a buzz from your enthusiasm for all things old, beautiful, practical and stimulating.   

Although he is a lover of old books, Buzzbee also takes an interest in more modern publications, especially those that encourage people to live healthier, greener lives.  The Rough Guide to Green Living below, is full of interesting information for those of us who want to go down the path of Reducing, Reusing and Recycling.

Thanks for sharing your buzz, Buzzbee.
