A Tokyo Apartment Lookshelf

1) Who are you and where are you?
Steve Finbow, I livein Asakusa, Tokyo.
2) What do you do for work?
I'm a writer & lecturer.
3) What do you do for fun?
I walk the streets of Tokyo, I go to Garage Land punk bar in Shibuya, and I have a thing about shoes.
4) Tell me something about your bookshelves.
Tokyo's apartments are very small, so this is a pruned-down must-keep collection culled from 4,500 books. I have a box of over 500 Beat books in the loft at my parents' house.
5) Tell me something about ONE of the books on your shelf.
Derek Raymond's I Was Dora Suarez is a first edition - it was priced at £12, I used a mind trick to get it for 50p. I'm not saying from where.
