That’s OK. The scary thing is, even with just a topic or color, we can usually help. One example: this past year, when a longtime customer came in looking for a book she’d heard about on NPR 2 or 3 years ago about homosexuality during the 19th century. It seemed like a long shot. Todd remembered it, looked it up and found it on the shelf in the sale section–in hardcover. Amazon can’t do that for you, but we are happy to–just ask.

P.S. The book was Graham Robb’s Strangers: Homosexual Love in the Nineteenth Century. Cartoon by Norm Feuti.
