About me This book fiend is at loose ends in Cornwall. Doing a bit of copywriting. Also looking for a job in the hope of having some regular income. Always finding solace in books. Not just the reading of them, but the hunt as well, and gloating over them like trophy wives/husbands/whatevers.

Special interests: Russian literature, discovering the new and old writers surfacing from the FSU, and writing from Eastern/Central Europe; experimental writing generally; chess; poetry in general, although I'm not too keen on poetry before the moderns; erm, well, philosophy and psychology.

I thought I had a lot of books until I started looking at the other personal libraries on this site. I see I have some catching up to do. (Did I mention I am competitive?)

We noticed that you were a Jorge Luis Borges fan, and we wanted to let you know that we’ve just published a brand new translation of his story, “Gradus Ad Parnassum,” in our anthology, ‘flatmanCROOKED – First Winter.’ “Gradus Ad Parnassum” is not currently in print in English, so we’re rather excited to publish what is to many Borges fans brand new work. The book also includes debut fiction from National Book Award winner Ha Jin, as well as stories from myriad other established and emerging authors. Check the book out at www.flatmancrooked.com/fmcmarket.html. If you get it through our website, it’s significantly cheaper than through Amazon or Barnes & Noble!
