Collecting Bildungsromans
Books frequently cited by our collectors as particular favourites often fall under the bildungsroman category. A few even tend towards that type of novel exclusively. Often because that period in life is a treasured period, and even if the story's set in space five-hundred years from now, there's a certain amount of nostalgia. It's an open classification, some titles are borderline, but all collections have somewhat abstract boundaries! Here are some examples that we currently have.
