Interview with Cathy Chua of exPB
- When did you get started in bookselling?
- My parents set up Pioneer Books in the mid seventies and I've had an ongoing involvement since my schooldays. Now I have inherited was is left of the stock and so I am listing some of it for myself.
- What is your favorite bookshop (other than your own)?
- I try to spend as much time as possible in Adelaide where we have a bookshop at the end of our small street. It's called East Avenue Books and it specialises in literature, which means it's a magnet for me. Charming shop with lovely owners. But Adelaide still has lots of secondhand/antiquarian bookshops, even in the CBD and I try to go to all of them.
- What do you personally like to read? Collect?
- I love literature. I don't collect anything, though I keep a few authors religiously. When I was still at school I had collections of books in areas of interest - my chess collection went to my chess playing brother. My music collection went to my piano playing brother. I realised early that collecting has a temporal quality.
