意大利收藏家利维亚·萨特里亚诺认为，一本书绝对应该通过封面来评判。她说，如果一个丑陋的封面有时能隐藏一个惊喜，那么漂亮的封面背后很少有令人失望的内容。

她最近成立的在线书店天秤座贝里提供了她不断增长的藏书的选择，多年来，她从二手商店、古董市场和在线图书馆采购书籍。天秤座贝里-意思是美丽的书籍，虽然它的直接英文翻译未能传达幽默怀旧的内涵-库存越来越多的不寻常的标题。

目前的选择包括从巫术史到20世纪70年代卖淫的实用指南，并将提供一系列特别漂亮的经典书籍版本，其中有小说和非小说类的标题。虽然主题是多样的，它的标题共享一个共同的线程在其精美设计的封面，结合明亮的插图和排版。

萨特里亚诺说，多年来我一直把这些书放在书架上。“现在是时候让他们看到光明了。”安顿下来，翻阅一下这群人中最好的头衔。

These books are part of a series by French photographer Dominique Darbois, who travelled the world to document childhood across the globe

Libri Belli's non-fiction selection includes a tome on the human mind (left), and a treaty on anxiety (right)

Satriano selected the books for her collection because of their stunning covers. 'I admit I don't know much about Serge Kancer [author of Gli Scatenati, left], but I like to think it's about a 1950s Venus in Fur. But I might be very wrong'
