Collections are different. They collect ancient coins, impressionist paintings, champagne corks, Faberge eggs. Hector, the hero of a charming, witty novel by David Fonkinos, a young French writer who is rapidly gaining popularity, suffers from chronic collector's disease. He collected stamps, pictures of ships, cufflinks, thermometers, hare's caps, cheese labels, Croatian sayings. To stop the spread of the infection, he even tried to commit suicide.
