Latte Nation

Red Town, Blue City

I filled out the information and got out of there before they could change their minds.

The truth is, the owners have been more than decent to me over the years. I prefer to deal with them because they pay better than the rest of the book peddlers in town, and because they seem to share my infatuation with the printed word. The massive selection of books that they have accumulated is something to behold. To browse the overflowing shelves of literature, history books, and religious literature is to show modern politics for the small, petty, fleeting thing that it’s become.
