JF Ptak Science Books
I just came across these image that I made on a trip to Dublin some years ago. Carrying the bags for my wife, Patti Digh, who was actually working there, I described my own work by going on a Ulysses tour. It was Sweny’s and Davy Byrnes (seems like two e’s are missing there, no?) that I liked the most–particularly so for the chemists, because it looked as though nothing major had happened in there in years, or at least that was the sense of the smallish creaking shop. I wanted some lemon soap.
See here for the rest:
[I am very happy to report that since this post was written in 2009 our daughter Emma Digh Ptak retrieved new lemon soaps for me from Sweny’s.]
