About meI enjoy reading Shakespeare and watching it on the screen, my favourite Shakespearean actor is Kenneth Branagh which you can probably tell from my catalogue. I went through a phase when I read all of Camus works, I still like to read them occasionally.
Many of my collections started when I worked in a University library and was in charge of accepting donations. If we didn't want it I was allowed to either take it or buy it for a dollar or two. Now I work in a place where I can buy books for 50% off, so I'm thinking I'll be adding a lot more new books. We can also buy leased books for $1 so I'm adding a few bestsellers or mystery books to my collection. So, I can only see my library growing...

I've recently become the editor of Scottish Culture at BellaOnline.

About my libraryI have a few collections. One is a collection of Lost Generation novels and biographies. These include Djuna Barnes, Robert McAlmon, Sylvia Beach, Ernest Hemingway, etc. Another is a Shakespeare/Kenneth Branagh collection. Also, it seems I am starting up a collection of "orange-white" Penguin's. I also collect books about Robert F. Kennedy. And I also have a collection of Paris travel books.
