About meGraduate student. Opera nerd. Internet Addict.
About my libraryI am not sure that my library actually gives a particularly accurate portrait of me or of my intellectual interests. Rather than being the books I have read recently, it's the books I have actually purchased for classes, plus plunderings from library booksales.
Still it is something. I suppose there is a voyeuristic thrill in seeing other people's libraries. And in the thought that others can see mine.
I am not as pretentious (nor as well-read) as this library would seem to indicate. I just don't buy the books that I read for fun.
