it’s a love it or hate it sort of place stuffed with not just books but every sort of odd and end you can think of.
don’t bump your head on the Buffalo mount as you walk in.
bring a lunch,you will need it.explore the back rooms.
the lady who owns it really knows her books,i asked if she had “the road to wigan pier” and got a 5 minute run down on why some of Orwell’s lesser known works are hard to find in the US.i go in a few times a month,i have not seen anything like it in the Midwest or maybe anywhere.
