“You two are book-men.” – Love’s Labor’s Lost

One of my favorite novelists, Ann Patchett, and a friend of hers, Karen Hayes, have apparently decided to open a bookstore in Nashville simply because no one else will.  “I have no interest in retail; I have no interest in opening a bookstore.  But I also have no interest in living in a city without a bookstore,” Ms. Patchett is quoted as saying.  That’s a real dedication to books, I’ll say!
