About me I do configuration management and knowledge gardening, and I love LibraryThing! I created a Find At ... link for searching Montgomery County Public Libraries (MD) from LT book entry pages. See my blog entry for more on that and the search-MCPL(MD)-from-Amazon bookmarklet: http://configures.sarahelkins.org/?p=50

About my library Haven't done the massive scan-in yet, so the 100+ now in my LT catalog are just a sample.

I'm looking for stories in print. I want to start a section of them in my physical library.
I have not read The Penelopiad yet. I read Homer's Daughter many many years ago and absolutely loved it. But then, again, I like all of Robert Graves' books.
Are you going to read the Atwood soon? If you do, I will be very interested to know what you think of it.
By the way, I see you are a Georgette Heyer's fan. Which one among her books would you recommend to someone who, like me, has never read any? Thanks!

Paola :-))
Sorry for taking so long to respond to your comment -- it slipped my mind until I logged on this evening.

Glass Bead Game is a great novel, but I really can't recommend Mary Midgley highly enough. She's brilliant. And if you haven't read any Hannah Arendt, reading Wickedness will get you to read her work as well. :-)
