Om mig Civil servant, arts graduate, law student, fretfuller than a fretful porpentine.

Om mit bibliotek The library is a shared domestic resource, the volumes in which have been added by my girlfriend and me separately and together. My part of it reflects frantic attempts to find a metier/idiom over the last two decades, starting with the onset of adolescence.

The catalogue contains literature through the ages, military history, history full stop, politics, sociology, economics, law, popular science, comics, science fiction, art, film.

Many books were purchased while economic circumstances allowed (singledom, good salary) with a view to a lifetime of research and/or relaxation and not all have been read or exploited at the time of cataloguing.

Drop a comment if you want a recommendation on anything in the catalogue and I'll let you know if either or us has read it and can offer a perspective.

They can indeed. Or rather, they could indeed. It was a one day thing, and it was only by chance that I found myself there. Apparently, there's a much bigger one in April every year. I have a vague recollection of hearing the old lady in charge saying "twenty thousand books," though where on earth they'd get them from in beyond me. Most of those on sale two weeks ago were those old orange Penguins, which I think is great.

Seems it, it being Library Thing, played an embarrassing trick on me.

I'm well beyond the 200 now; the Trinity booksale gave me about 20 books for a very reasonable six euro. Four Waughs, two DH Lawrences, two Orwells, a Voltaire, a Montaigne and some other odd bits and pieces. I also found myself in the Hoggis basement buying some cheap Robbie Burns and some cheaper Walt Whitman. Today, too, I had to pay library fines for keeping four Beckett collections for what was deemed too long. In Easons, we stock really attractive compendiums of Larkin, Eliot, Hughes, Plath and Yeats, all of which I'm struggling to resist.

The problem is my credit card; I don't have one. I'll point the parents this way next time I'm getting T-Shirts.

I suspect that, with more effort, I may stumble upon it. Perhaps incorrectly, I browsed only the Crime section in Waterstones. In any case, the rest of the visit was a fine example in Nabokovian urge. I knew I shouldn't have, but I bought five of his books, leaving room for little else.

Just thought I'd say so 3 times, to make sure. In any case, I couldn't find it in Waterstones yesterday. Am I to be forced into using Amazon?

This Mortdecai Trilogy doesn't sound like something I'd ever have bought, but you were right about Clive James, so I will of course give it a shot starting tomorrow.

For sure. I'm still waiting for RW to set up his user profile.

I've run out of lying around books to catalogue. Everything else is in boxes and will probably remain there until after I move house (if I achieve this much desired goal).

I now share 30 books with you. It strikes me that this book ownership audit could end up as a better guide to mental compatibility than anything else.
