About mePassionate polymath, lover of languages, fairly fluent in French: evidently silly, often pretentious, seldom bored, graduate student in Comparative Literature and Classics--which is to say that I also can't make up my mind. I'm obsessed enough with books to consider often giving up the academic path to pursue a high-dollar career--corporate law or financial management--just to allow me to begin build ing the library I've always dreamed about. Like many LibraryThingers, I'm pretty fanatical about books. I don't know what to think about that.

About my libraryHas ebbed and flowed for 15 years; has been sold for travel or rent on than once occasion; but now I might have 50 books I would never want to part with. I would guess I have read at least half of the books, but I admit that I build my home out of books, in case someday I should have the opportunity or the need to stay indoors for a long time, reading.

I have a moratorium on book buying right now.
