Brit-Canadian archivist-librarian, government records and local history museum staffer, trad-classical musician, post-academic philosophy PhD (on Augustine), and other hyphenated things. Can't help it: so much to learn.
My pile is vast. Haven't had the energy or heart to read properly for pleasure for a while. Must do better. I've just been reading children's books or Agatha Christie before bed so I'm not too haunted at night...(it's not working).

I actually have a problem with self-disgust in this regard. I don't know Thérèse (of Lisieux) near as well as C. S. Lewis (of whom I'm a real fan) but this by her helps me on this front.
