FERNANDO BOTERO
My "Botero" is an inexpensive tourist tchotchke from the gift store of the Museo Botero in Bogota. But I treasure it because I love its image of plump books. Botero, of course, is known for plumping up his figures -- and while I love the book in all of its forms, I have a special fondness for PLUMP as in THICK books. I make them, too, like the book nicknamed BRICK with its 504 pages in a genre known more for less-than-a-hundred pages. Merely 504 pages? I shall have to work on exceeding that...!
