About meI've worked in bookstores for about eight years. Books are a large part of my life with wine coming in a close second. If I had to hold up favourite authors then Henry Miller, Robertson Davies,Umberto Eco and Alasdair Gray have made the biggest impressions over the last few years.

About my libraryLargely fiction with a smattering of history and a little art, poetry etc. My library expands and contracts over time and right now I'm at a low ebb having cleared out a lot of titles I felt I could live without. I'm favouring first editions and hardcovers over easily replaceable paperbacks and I only keep on Librarything titles that are physically in my posession.
