Om mig 77, married, retired systems analyst and programmer. (Cobol, IMS, DB2, CICS). In Florida for the winter, and Poughkeepsie in the summer. Amateur oratorio singer and painter. Taught fine art before computer systems. Product of Hutchins college at the U of Chicago in the 40's. In love with literature, classical music, jazz and expressionist and abstract art. Liberal humanist, feminist. Mother, stepmother and grandmother. My wish list of books I haven't acquired or borrowed yet is on 'almigwinwishlist' in LT.

Om mit bibliotek Mostly english 19th and 20th century fiction, literary criticsm and literary biography. Poetry in french, german, spanish, italian, portugese, hebrew, yiddish and russian. I read them all except russian, yiddish and portugese. I can speak and understand yiddish but my reading is halting. My hebrew is very primitive,(reading only from biblical studies), my russian is minimal and my portugese is nonexistant. It would be worth mastering for Pessoa. I love the modern Polish poets but do not read Polish, so depend on translation. I try to get the complete works of the poets and novelists that are important, or that I love, or both. I have a lot of dual language poetry books and anthologies of poetry and short stories. I have a few hundred art books, some history and philosophy. some science especially physics.lots of cookbooks-french, italian, chinese, mediteranean.
