[Jobe, Steve]

Carol Shields, Swann (1988)

[Barbara Bordalejo]

_Labyrinth_ by Kate Mosse
_The Dante Club_ by Matthew Pearl

There are also several short stories by Borges -The Library of Babel,
for example.

[Cannery Row Old Book Company]

_The Abortion_ by Brautigan (about a library where unpunished novels reside)
and of course _Parnassus on Wheels_ and _The Haunted Bookshop_ by Morley
Anyone mention _Fahrenheit 451_ by Bradbury?

Any idea what the oldest novel about books may be? Or for that matter
the oldest book about books?

[François Melançon]

We can include also all titles from the Bernie Rhodenbarr series from
the mystery writer Lawrence Block. Bernie is a bookseller by day and a
burglar by night.
