Just a quick post to introduce myself.

I'm an aficionado of vast philosophical literature. Though I really appreciate modern writers like Thomas Pynchon, William S. Burroughs, James Joyce, and Virginia Woolf, I get into classic literature as well. Of late I've been on a Herman Melville binge.

I live in Massachusetts, USA, and recently made the acquaintance of my favorite contemporary author, Jonathan Bayliss. I have a jonathanbayliss.com website dedicated to his work, which is a series of novels he calls the Gloucesterman saga. These books are full of strange puzzles and prose poetry, and I highly recommend them.

I look forward to discussing books with the legion of bibliophiles here.

Hey Babbalanja from Framingham! I am Kathy from...well from northern Worcester County near the N.H. border. ;)

I think you might enjoy the philosophy texts discussion. Some of the debates get pretty spirited (if you like debate), additionally lots of people here read classics. So, welcome. :D

*edit* correction, I see you found the debates. :p
