| Introduction | Reading and travel are my two main obsessions--everything else just falls into a distant third place. After 20 years as a career bookseller, I now work for Penguin Ranom House and get to travel throughough New England selling their Knopf Doubleday line. I like the classics but I especially love modern fiction, Southern writers, and books set in the Caribbean, my favorite place to travel. |
