Books (and a few DVDs) going

[lethargic_man]

After building up a library for last dozen years, the prospect of having to shlep it all elsewhere come my next house move fills me with horror, and I'm seeking to thin it a bit. (Okay, I'll confess I'm pretty hopeless at actually taking books off the shelf to discard; the discard pile is tiny compared to what remains, but it's better than nothing.) Would anyone like to claim any of the following, before I take the rest to charity shops?

• Gregory Benford, Tides of Light
• David Zindell, The Wild
• Maggie Gee, The Ice People
• George R.R. Martin, A Game of Thrones
• Jack Kerouac, On the Road
• Graham Greene, The Third Man and The Fallen Idol
• Jeffrey Carver, From a Changeling Star
• James Boswell, The Life of Samuel Johnson
• Jules Verne, Five Weeks in a Balloon and Around the World in Eighty Days
• James M. Cain, The Postman Always Rings Twice
• Flann O'Brien, At Swim-Two-Birds
• Rudyard Kipling, Puck of Pook's Hill
• R.M. Silverman, Baruch Spinoza: Outcast Jew, Universal Sage
• Richard Dawkins, The Blind Watchmaker
• Joan D. Vinge, The Snow Queen
• Mark Henry, Happy Hour of the Damned.
• John Gale, Teach Yourself Pottery
• Theodore Stugeon, The [Widget], the [Wadget] and Boff / Isaac Asimov, The Ugly Little Boy
• Xiao Jian, Chestnuts, and other stories
• Miguel Cervantes, Don Quixote
• Nosson Scherman (IIRC—I have to locate this volume!), The Gabbai's Handbook
• Ed. Jonathan Sacks, Tradition and Transition: Essays Presented to Chief Rabbi Sir Immanuel Jakobovits to celebrate twenty years in office
• The Italian Job
• Tron: Legacy

Also, rysmiel, you told me many years ago about a shop in Islington that takes old SF magazines. Do you remember where this shop is, and whether it still exists?

I'll have Don Quixote, assuming its in English, and I'll also have The Life of Shmuel Yohoynoson, if no-one else has already nabbed it. Thanks.

The Life of Shmuel Yohoynoson

Don't have that, I'm afraid, but I can offer you The Life of Shmuel Ben-Yoḥanan instead...

I still need to borrow your drill, so how about I drop over on Sunday for it, and give you the books at the same time?
