That is an absolutely fantastic book.
The perks of working in a used bookstore.
When it rains it pours in the world of book mail. @nyrb-imprints.bsky.social @charco.bsky.social
This beautiful first edition came into Recycle Bookstore today.
Yesterday’s haul from the bookstore. @versobooks.bsky.social @haymarketbooks.bsky.social
Waking up to news that Paul Auster had passed was a heartbreaking way to start the day.
I have a lot of shelving to do in the home library.
Z stack. Flat signed firsts.
W stack. All flat signed firsts aside from the paperback Tobias Wolff.
Some excellent book mail from Graywolf Press.
Some recent acquisitions. Picked up the Croft & Carson at Bright Side Books in Flagstaff. And book mail from HarvardBooks, Skylightbooks Charco Press & New Directions
Some light reading for the flight home after four days in the Grand Canyon.
Seriously, Recycle Bookstore in San Jose, CA just gets such amazing stuff. This is like a snapshot into the 1960’s counterculture. Loving it!
V stack. All flat signed first printings.
This came into the bookstore today (Recycle Bookstore in San Jose, CA). A first printing!! A piece of fucking literary history.
Book mail for today.
I treated myself to some books while in Guerneville, CA. Be sure to stop at Russian River Books and Letters if you’re ever in that area. It’s an amazing well curated store.
Spending Caesar Chavez Day along the Russian River outside of Guerneville. The early morning fog has dissipated. The sun is starting to peak through. May have to take a bath in the outdoor claw foot tub in a little while.
T stack. All flat signed first printings.
S stack. All flat signed first printings except that paperback of Liberation Day.
R stack. All flat signed first printings.
P stack. All flat signed first printings.
