Biblioholism: The Literary Addiction

Book lovers will enjoy Raabe’s outrageous ploys and solutions to excessive book acquisition mingled among the true accounts of famous bibliophiles. His book parodies the self-help genre; fellow sufferer Raabe writes to help the reader cope with (rather than attempt to recover from) their addiction. There are notes and bibliography, but no index.
