Sobre mimI've been an avid reader all my life. I received my PhD in English Literature from the University of Virginia in 1996 with a specialization in Renaissance literature. That is why I'm using Edmund Spenser for my picture (he's also better looking than I am!). I've long since left academia for the greener fields of IT--I'm a programmer. However, I'm still an avid reader, I just don't read as much as I used to. On the bright side, I get to choose what I read, and I never again have to read another poorly written journal article. I mostly read the classics because I enjoy them, but I'm always looking for an off-the-radar screen book that is a real gem.

Sobre a minha bibliotecaIt's pretty eclectic, I guess, but it will take me awhile to get it on here and we'll see how eclectic it is. It's fairly heavily focused on 20th century fiction writers. The poetry I have is pretty canonical, at least until the 20th and 21st centuries. Drama and non-fiction are pretty weak and very eclectic. I also have an interest in Christian spiritual writing, particularly Christian mysticism.
