About me Quotes:

We carry with us the wonders we seek without us: there is all Africa and her prodigies in us. (Sir Thomas Browne)

If one reads the Strange Tales just for the plot, and not for the style, one is a fool. (Feng Zhenluan)

Recently read:

About my library Mostly literature, with a penchant for poetry. Some history, philosophy and other non-fiction.
And then there is SF; actually my third collection of SF: I sold my first one in the sixties, started anew somewhere in the seventies, gave it away in the eighties; started my third collection around 1990. Recently I sold most of my SF novels: to me SF is primarily a short story genre. Especially in SF I hate things called "sagas" or "epics".

My ratings:

1...Nice
2...Good
3...Masterpiece
4...Classic
5...Dante
