About My Library

My main area of interest is Borges. I am working on a collection of all editions, translators, and cover variants of his work in English. My second love is books on books, but I also collect books about Theravāda Buddhism, coffee, Roman and Germanic paganism, and Zimbabwe/Rhodesia.

My collection is an anti-library; I feel no pressure (only excitement) to read all the books that it contains.

Anything in the For Sale collection (as can almost anything if you make me a good offer!) can be purchased from me, and I ship internationally. Send me a message!

About Me

Bookseller, bibliophile, amateur bookbinder. Worked at the Book Bazaar in Ottawa for 9 years, now at Black Squirrel Books and on my own. When I'm not reading (or, let's be honest, cataloguing and sorting), I'm cooking, playing music, or playing JRPGs.

Location

Ottawa, ON
