“And yet, for a writer of fiction, part of the heart remains that of a stranger, for what we are trying to do is to understand those others who are our fictional characters, somehow to gain entrance to their minds and feelings, to respect them for themselves as human individuals, and to portray them as truly as we can. The whole process of fiction is a mysterious one, and a writer, however experienced, remains in some ways a perpetual amateur, or perhaps a perpetual traveller, an explorer of those inner territories, those strange lands of the heart and spirit.”

MEMOS TO LIBRARY USERS:

Please fill in the name of the book on the sign up sheet in the library so we will know what books have been borrowed. The organization of the library is still in progress. Sign up sheets for books will be available soon. It is not compulsory to use these sheets, but if possible it would be greatly appreciated if books that are taken out are recorded on the signup sheet so we can keep track of the books we have in the library

If you shelve any new books that you have brought in please do so alphabetically and leave the name of the new book on the sheet in the library so it can be added to the blog list. You do not have to shelve the books. You can just leave them on the table or in a box and they will be shelved as soon as possible.
