Charles-Antoine Bachand in Quebec sent us this link to Jonathan Glancey’s article on the Guardian Unlimited Arts Blog:
"By any standards, though, and whatever their provenance, the Moleskine notebooks are an everyday design classic. They are for me, anyway, as I really do use them pretty much every single day of the year for both writing and drawing in and have done so since they appeared a decade ago. I like the compact size, decent plain paper, the rounded edges, the elastic band that holds the books together, the cloth ribbon bookmark, the expandable pocket inside for storing train tickets, business cards, and scribbled phone numbers, and, of course, I like the "moleskin" covers, made, in reality, of oilcloth-covered cardboard. And, the fact that the books stack neatly, and discreetly, on a shelf when full."
[Merci Charles-Antoine!]
