Although we carry all the current and a few out-of-print titles
of both Miller and Patchen, we feel that the young lady carries
specialization a little too far. In addition to basic and current works
in our special fields of Theatre - Dance - Film and Music, we try
to have on hand at all times a representative selection of the creative
and critical work of those authors, ancient and modern, foreign and
domestic, who have won a place in the library of the serious, sophisti–
cated reader. Auden or Villon, Henry James or James Joyce, if the
guy has talent his books are on our shelves.
This is the first of a series of advertisements intended to tell you
about our shop and the line along which we hope to see it develop.
