About My Library
Recently I have been buying and reading mostly early 20th century books of poetry and fiction set in British Columbia. My wider interests are pre-19th century notarial documents, art history, especially from 18th-century Italy, botany, anthropology, photography, and calligraphy. I happily find a home for the rare and obscure.
About Me
I have been a reader all my life although it's somewhat more difficult these days due to digital distractions. My science background is in botany, and by inclination I love literature and poetry. I live in Vancouver and much of my collecting has to do with British Columbia.
