Lol. Food, clothing, shelter, and protection. 
So as long as your father provided you with the absolute basics and fundamentals of survival, what does anyone have to complain about. 

“Do you, Helen, take this man, for richer or poorer, sickness…”

”YES! I want isolation and and difference! I want fights and obsession… so long as he provides me with the basics to survive.”

This man collected 300,000, so that is, say, 7,500 books a year, for 40 years. That’s 20 books a day, consistently. 

It’s no wonder she left him, he’s a nut. 

Instead of the Fantast Collection, it should have been renamed the Psychosis Collection.

Interesting analysis.  Don't know if this will be addressed in the documentary, but do you imagine she didn't know about his collecting habits BEFORE they got married?

And how much it escalated if he did collect prior.
