This Week, Etc.

Join us Wednesday, November 12 as Prof. Audrey Kerr discusses her book, The Paper Bag Principle. This should be of interest to Washingtonians and readers of sociology, American studies, history and African American studies/history. Thursday brings us a visit from director and producer Alex Beckstead. He’ll screen and discuss Paperback Dreams, a documentary about two important West Coast bookstores.


And it seems we have a Facebook group, the Vertigo Books Appreciation Society. This was started by our Jen, a greatly missed long-time employee. She’s pining for a bookstore in the wilds of CT.
