And only about five minutes walking from Canal street [ sic ]. Joe dismisses that, but remembers when Joan Williams visited and slept in their top-floor loft. There are slow days in a French Quarter bookstore, but never boring ones.
Too many ideas surround you stacked from the floor to ceiling. I multiplied the number of spines—accounting for various widths—by the number of shelves.
