This is a great review. I read this book 10 years ago, but forgot the author’s name. One thing that stuck with me this whole time was Hanta’s obsession of saving the greatness that is contained in the books to be crushed, yet he lives in fear every day that at the slightest move, what he devoted so much time to saving could crush and kill him. It’s a fantastic story.

The description of the book and those extracts were compelling enough for me to order the book from Amazon within 5 minutes of reading this post :) Thanks.
