About meWhen I was young, I wrote: "We must love one another or die." With age, I recognized the falsehood of this, and wrote: "We must love one another and die."

Seeing that your Library contains only books published up to the year in which W.H. Auden died, I would like to ask if this Library is a project to reconstruct Auden's Library for real or is it an imaginary Auden's library?
Being a curious one, I found this Library because I wanted to see the other three who own the Collected Verse of Lewis Carroll - 1932.
I found it decades ago in a secondhand bookshop in Cambridge.
It's been one of my most favored ever since.
