Over mijn bibliotheek
I have a graveyard - one whole shelf in my little West Village NYC Apartment is dedicated to crap books I start and eventually deem unworthy of several weeks of my life - my ambition is to make this graveyard of half read books grow no more...and to find some more mind-broadening, intelligent reading.
