Waking up to news that Paul Auster had passed was a heartbreaking way to start the day.

Seriously, Recycle Bookstore in San Jose, CA just gets such amazing stuff. This is like a snapshot into the 1960’s counterculture. Loving it!

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.

M stacks! Everything is a flat signed first printing, except one copy of Mcglue is a second. And one of the Eileen’s lacks a dust jacket. The Marías is also signed by his translator Margaret Jull Costa.

I stack. All flat signed firsts aside from The Man In My Head in which he wrote a lovely inscription. He also said it was the most books he’d ever had anyone bring to a signing 🤷♂️

In an attempt to not do the home improvement projects I’m supposed to be doing while my family is out of town I decided to go through all my signed books. Everything, except maybe five or six books, are flat signed first printings. Maybe I’ll put up smaller A-Z stacks soon.

I had the pleasure of hearing Percival Everett yesterday at SJSU and was able to get all my books signed. What a funny, brilliant, inspiring, and very interesting person. Now to make my way through the rest of his novels.

I second the eBay option. You can also use Biblio.com. It’s pretty easy setting up a sellers account and they take a lower percentage of the sale than abebooks. Plus they aren’t an Amazon subsidiary.

Spent the morning in the Santa Cruz mountains and went for a ride on the Roaring Camp narrow-gauge train. The cathedral grove redwoods are nearly 9,000 years old. I live in an insanely beautiful place and am amazed at how lucky I am to have gotten off the farm and built a life on the west coast.
