Wow, now that's a collection! Too bad the bank repossessed his home; which makes me wonder, how can he be continually frequenting bookstores and buying books when he cannot pay his mortgage? It's a sad story that banks do this, especially at his age (judging from his looks, he's gotta be in at least his mid-50's). Probably something about him taking out a second mortgage and got in over his head with his book addiction.
Sucks that things were declared a fire hazard, but if he has so much stuff in his new apartment (how'd they know what he had in there anyway? Hidden cameras?) the books probably just added to the clutter. If he co-owns a bookstore, why didn't he just move his books to the storage area of the bookstore? Too many variables.
