Scene from a library queue, update


Related to this post from last week, I am now in possession of OCCUPATIONAL HAZARDS, KAFKA ON THE SHORE and (at left) GLOVER'S MISTAKE.

Funny thing about my copy of GLOVER'S, it has a red sticker with the abbreviation "B&T" on its spine. Surely the New York Public Library would not have an official use for the city slang for people outside Manhattan? Oh, but they do -- my copy is from a Staten Island library. (Not sure if they also do this for the Bronx.)

The turning gears of a public utility shall now be allowed to continue undocumented.
