About meI am currently teaching EFL at a college in Barbados. I am working on a novel, music production and various online projects.
I love SF and non-fiction, particularly history, philosophy and Native Siberian and American cultures.
About my libraryI started by only including books that my wife and I have with us in Barbados, but I can't help remembering others being stored in various locales in England and for whom I sometimes pine.
The Chinese Medical books and herbal stuff is included as my wife does acupuncture and herbal medicine for a living.
Many of the books I have included are not the 'correct' editions as these are not always easy or possible to find.
