About meTAKE 1:
Hippie child in search of spiritual transcendence evolved into radical activist in search of the revolution to end all revolutions. Somewhat mellowed by the vagaries of realpolitiks and by years of working with both victims and offenders in the criminal justice system, I'm currently in the belly of the beast as a government consultant in search of a viable savings account...

TAKE 2:
Dedicated bookworm and music collector, avid gardener, DIY home renovator, sometime local activist, feminist, legal beagle, wannabe artist, public policy analyst, and more! Call me "renaissance grrl."

About my libraryThese are not "virtual" previously-read or wishlist titles, but actual books I own.

My collection is almost exclusively non-fiction; heavy on political and critical theory, philosophy, hermeneutics, the sociology of knowledge, women's studies, gender theory, depth psychology, religious studies, and mysticism. As a former foodie, I've also got a bunch of well-used cookbooks and wine manuals. And in fond memory of curling up with British armchair mysteries as a girl, I'm still hanging on to the collected works of Agatha Christie. tag view
