About meI blog about the books I read at http://timesflowstemmed.com/
About my libraryStarted entering my collection here in March 2010. In fiction I have a proclivity for novels that engage with modernism, often in translation. My nonfictional reading covers literary criticism, philosophy, critical theory, and sociology, with an aesthetic compulsion that lures me to artist’s (including photographer’s) monographs.

I see you just added 'Borges and Memory: Encounters with the Human Brain'; I would love to hear your thoughts once you get around to reading it. As both a fan of Borges (and his life story) and an interest in consciousness/memory/neuroscience/etc this book sounds like a perfect meeting of topics for me.
Cheers,
C.
