\nLibrary getting packed up again<\/i>. <\/p>\n

I’m too old for this shit. <\/p>\n

So this bookcase is half-packed and what is there is random, but it makes a pretty funny collage. <\/p>\n

— Dad\u2019s book on Anglo-Irish literature (dedicated to Mum)
\n— my grandfathers copy of the Federalist Papers
\n— the Sewanee Review<\/em> Irish Letters issue (with my essay about Dad and Yeats and my siblings – my first published piece)
\n— Criterion\u2019s Bringing Up Baby<\/em>
\n— DVD of The Assistant<\/i>
\n— Lubitsch’s Trouble in Paradise<\/i>, also Criterion
\n— my dad’s copy of Proust’s magnum opus (one volume anyway)
\n— Liz Phair’s memoir
\n— a bunch of different scholars weigh in on Elvis
\n— Shakespeare’s sonnets. I read one a day, every morning.
\n— Ellen Willis
\n— Manny Farber
\n— Pauline Kael
\n— Annie Proulx
\n— David Foster Wallace<\/p>\n

This is Me in a nutshell. Like, every base covered. <\/p>\n
