We spent the afternoon wandering the West Village which is always fun but of course the main object was to visit that wonderful indie bookstore, Three Lives & Company.
The weather here in NYC is unseasonably mild (significant understatement - 17C today), so sadly this shot from last Christmas is not really relevant but I do like it so here it is again.
Although I am already laden down with books and had vowed not to buy any more on this visit I still managed to purchase the following:
Chronicles of Old New York
Exploring Manhattan's Landmark Neighborhoods.
James Roman - Museyon - $17.95
Includes 9 walking tours, we hope to walk a couple of them this coming week.
Tin House - 50th issue
Tin House Books - $12.95
I'll give this to Fergus Barrowman, publisher of Sport literary magazine, after I have read it.
The Believer
Vol.10 No.1 - McSweeney Publishing - $8.
I was seduced by the cover (right). Fergus will probably get this one too.
