About my library~

I confess to not being up on much modern literature and my library reflects that. That's one reason why there are so many "classics"; although additionally I feel that if one is to be well-read then one must have a knowledge of such works.

I've always had an interest in the Far East and that too is reflected in my library by the large number of Japanese authors featured there. Obviously there aren't mountains of translated novels availible but I take my pick from what is on offer.

Otherwise my library is made up of whatever I come across during my time at work that takes my fancy or has been recommended (the likes of Hyperion, and Burn Collector for instance).
