Nagles and I just scored free trash books off the Bergen G stop. I got Michael Chabon’s The Yiddish Policeman’s Union and she got one that had a really simple nice cover. SCORE!
I love finding free books! They’re like a present from the universe. Once, I stopped at a book stand on the street and inquired as to the price of a certain tome, and was told more than I had. I only had like one dollar and he said five. I said “Be right back I have to go to the ATM” and he told me not to bother and just take the book. I was stunned and grateful and he was like “What is so weird about me wanting to give you this book for free?”
