{about organizing books in his home library, and putting a book in the "Arts and Lit non-fiction section}I personally find that for domestic purposes, the Trivial Pursuit system works better than Dewey."
Nick Hornby shares his thoughts on organizing books in his home library, suggesting that for personal collection, a more casual system like Trivial Pursuit might be more effective than the formal Dewey Decimal System. This reflects a preference for a system that resonates more with individual taste and the practicalities of home life.
He emphasizes the importance of ease and personal enjoyment in categorizing books, illustrating this by referring to a specific instance of placing a book in the "Arts and Lit non-fiction section." Hornby's approach highlights how personal organization can enhance the experience of reading and surrounding oneself with literature.
