    About this ebook

    Everyone has a favorite bookstore. It might be that it is wonderfully large, or small, or affordable. Whatever it is, it is your bookstore. The place you find what you want. It is the place you find what you need.

    In this collection of 40 prose poems, David Macpherson introduces you to other kinds of bookstores. They are places that might be different and unexpected. But perhaps, they will still be someplace to go to, to dream upon.
