LA has been fun for now. 5 days into the vacation and I’ve done all the major bookshops left in this part of Hollywood, with only three purchases. The best by far has been Dutton’s, one of a growing number of “community bookstores” in the trenches fighting against the brutality of Big Conglomerates.
