Hello, I just imported my GoodReads data and am giving federation a try. I like to read things on the "100 best novels/classics/whatevers" lists. I like to think that makes me an educated gentleman, but I probably just means I'm a dork.

I sort of inadvertently became a collector of old Modern Library hardcovers. I was in my local used book shop this weekend nearly bought one before realizing I already had a copy.

Feedback / links to relevant documentation appreciated. #modernlibrary #books #oldbooks #bookwyrm #bookcollection

I heard of this book from an episode of the Upstream Podcast (www.upstreampodcast.org/). I'm not very far into it yet, but it is fascinating. Lots of discussion so far about the extent of racism and organized crime in the early Jazz scene.
