These Pages
My secret
hope is that you might find something here that you haven't read
and that it will end up mattering as much to you as it has to
me. Much on these lists will change over time as I remember better.
Few of the lists are in any particular order.
Hey
Many
of these titles can be found at low prices. Check out Hamilton Books or Powell's or Daedalus. Check out Alibris or Abebooks. And there's always your favorite local
library. Some titles are linked to more interesting places whenever
I could find them.
Check out this
site which will connect you to just about everything bookish
on the web: Books and Book Collecting
