About My Library
My favorite books are The Eustace Diamonds by Anthony Trollope, Ahab's Wife by Sena
Jeter Naslund, Lonesome Dove by Larry McMurty, anything by Annie Proulx. Trollope is probably my favorite author.
My library downsized over last three years from a lifetime collection to a smaller collection of mostly art books, my favorite Trollope, Dickens, Lessing and the currently used cook books. My daughter (in the style of our warped family humor) kept asing me: I get the cookbooks when you die, right Mom? She's gotten them now and I enjoy seeing them on her shelves. I use my public library system, second-hand book stores and mostly pass books on when I'm finished unless it's something I know I'll need to revisit.
