About meI'm into visual studies. If I can, I'd just live happily among my books, with no one and nothing else, save for the most basic necessities. Books are easier to deal with, because they depend so much on you. Whatever they are, they still depend much on your reading of them.
"Literature is otherness, and as such alleviates loneliness. We read not only because we cannot know enough people, but because friendship is so vulnerable, so likely to diminish or disappear, overcome by space, time, imperfect sympathies, and all the sorrows of familial and passional life." --Harold Bloom, "How to Read and Why"
About my libraryI've been keeping my books since I was old enough to read, so you'll find a smattering of children's books, as well as obscure ones.

Some my sister and I grew up with (my mother's books), some are gifts by authors, others from second-hand bookstores and book sales of publishers, notably the UP Press and New Day Publishers, an activity I used to do more frequently back in college and pretty much when I had more time to scour for books. Thank you for your comment! :) - K Villa
