I work in a university library; have two daughters (24 and 30); spend all my free time reading; just starting to draw and paint again; beginning to write in a writers group; and am yearning to travel. I read nearly anything that comes my way, although I'm not usually drawn to science-fiction or horror or chick-lit. I've recently discovered South American writing that takes me to new places, especially through the magical realism genre - love it! And, because I m Dutch and spent my early years in Holland, I try to read as much translated Dutch fiction as I can. Because there is no other way, on this site, to make a note of authors I wish to read, I will list them here for my reference: Jorge Luis Borges, Italo Calvino, Salman Rushdie, Rohinton Mistry, Michael Ondaatje, J.M. Coetzee, Mark Helprin, Jose Saramago, Thomas Mann, Tom Robbins.
