- A propos de ma bibliothèque
- It started when my daughter went to college and was assigned The Brothers Karamazov over the summer before she showed up in the Honors Program there (Seattle Pacific University). I'd always been intimidated by the gigantic 19th Century volumes of literature, but decided to try it since she was very enthusiastic. I purchased the first hardcover that popped-up on my Ebay search and ended up paying $20 for 4 Heritage Press editions of books. I couldn't believe how amazing the quality of these books were. I finished the Dostoyevsky and then dove into the others. In the included Sandglass pamphlets, it was mentioned that Heritage was a "little sister" to the Limited Editions Club. I picked up a few of the cheap volumes and fell in love with physical books. Now I have a 100 beautiful books in my collection and am trying to catch up.
- A propos de moi
- I pretty much was an adolescent with an adolescent reading level until I turned 50 and suddenly lost interest in SF and videogames. Now I spend my time reading the classics and the world is becoming so much more rich.
