Not only am I now excited to visit McNally Jackson when I visit New York next month (I really hope Outkast welcomes me in), I am also relieved by Camille’s observation that so much real estate is dedicated to books in a high-rent district of New York. She’s right! What a relief.

Always love your reviews, C! If I was a staff member who had my pick “sell out” I would consider it a career highlight. New goal unlocked! That or getting a book published with an “ACTUALLY FUNNY” label.

Love the hypothesizing of the comings and goings in the breakroom. Need to read that Czech title. The cover reminds me of A Confederacy of Dunces. Great review!
