To keep shipping costs as low as possible, we recommend placing smaller print book orders whenever practical. Orders that exceed our print partner's U.S. shipping weight limit may be fulfilled from a U.K. facility, resulting in significantly higher shipping charges. If you're purchasing several print books, placing two or more smaller orders will often reduce your shipping costs.
The Discipline of Attention — Gold leaf is only attention made visible. Finn had heard Brother Columba say this twice before, placing it the way Columba placed things worth remembering — not emphasizing them, just setting them where they could be found later. Standing at the vellum on the third morning of the capital letter, Finn thinks he may be beginning to understand what the words mean. Not as words. As the thing itself.
