What books do you have multiple copies of? (thelemmy.club)

And, why do we do this to ourselves?

I have two copies of:

  • The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain

  • Small Island by Andrea Levy

  • Thinking Clearly by Jill Leblanc

These are due to integration between my partner's books and my own.

  • The God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy

  • No Logo by Naomi Klein

  • Island by Aldous Huxley

These are because they are some of my favourite books and, except for No Logo, I have one hardcover and one softcover edition.

I have multiple copies of Love at Goon Park which is a biography of Harry Harlow. I use it in seminars and it's out of print. Also I keep extra copies of books I frequently lend - On Bullshit by Harry Frankfurt, Cynefin by Dave Snowden and friends, The Peter Principle by Laurence J. Peters, and The Toyota Way by Thomas Liker.
