One of the remarkable things about living in this neighborhood is the presence of three separate independent bookstores in a three block radius -- a feat made ever more astonishing by the increasing homogenization and decline of the book industry. A particular gem is "
Books Do Furnish A Room," a fantastic book store located
right on the edge of the Ninth Street Shopping District. I wonder if it was named after a
famous novel by
Anthony Powell.
All this week, this little shop is having a 30% sale on many new and used books! Please check it out and support your local -- and independent -- bookstore.
