Did I mention the library building is WONDerful? All light and airy and wood and glass. Also, on a Saturday, very quiet.
ABE is dangerous. Also, thesis is dangerous in offering perfect excuse for hanging out at ABE. Oh dear.
As if I hadn’t spent enough on books today as it was – I went to a fleamarket and found a couple of books there. Though not as many as I tend to, which must be good, considered I Do Not Have Room For Any More Books (repeat to self in mirror 100 times daily, maybe it’ll sink in eventually). Then, on my way to the campus, I passed Adamstuen Antikvariat. Well, naturally one can’t pass a second-hand bookshop without ‘just checking’. A little later and I’m the proud owner of Alexander Kielland’s collected works in five volumes. And 350 NOK poorer. Oh, well, I was thinking just the other day that I really should have read a bit more Kielland. I was sort of planning to check the library, of course, but this is better. I think.
