About My Library
It has taken over our apartment. Despite Regular culling (and two major reductions made necessary by trans-Atlantic moves) it has grown to over 4000 volumes.
It is housed in 14 Billy bookcases, stacked on tables and on the floor.

The books in in 'My Library' are all currently in our possession. I have not entered the hundreds of books read on loan from libraries, friends or photocopied from teachers' rare copies. I have started to include books read and then given away to friends, family or charity shops (or in the case of my childhood books, simply read to pieces)in the 'read but unowned' category. This is in preparation of a new cull I'm planning.
About Me
I come from a family of writers, teachers and philosophers - bookworms all. All of them have their own ever-expanding collections, but I seem to be the most afflicted.

Luckily my wife loves books as much as I do, reads twice as much as me, but only rarely buys any. In the rare cases that she reproaches me for extravagant purchases, I can always point out that they are for 'us'.
