BOOKSTORE
CLOSINGS Monday, December 17, 2007
Ellie
It's sad to see a bookstore close. The Book Baron of Anaheim, California, an institution of 20,000 square feet, 500,000 used and rare books, and 27 years in the business, is closing this month with a fire sale. And Loome Antiquarian Books of Stillwater, MN is closing this month too, also with a giant sale and promotional YouTube video to bring in the droves. The video ("the books act out their favorite literary death scenes") is funny, clever, and sad, all simultaneously. I've been there. I burned a book at the end of Coventry Books. C'est La Vie.
IN
MEMORIAM: JANE RULE
Wednesday, December 12, 2007
Harriett
Ellie from Strong Bindery came in all upset over the news that Jane Rule has died. End of an era. Jane Rule made big waves in her day, and is largely lost in regonition in these more accepting times. Her 1964 lesbian romance Desert of the Heart became a classic, and later a film. After all, there was a happy ending! Her nonfiction work Lesbian Images is considered a landmark. Literature, and society, has indeed been altered by the pioneers like Jane Rule, who broke all the rules. Rest in well-deserved and long-sought peace.
ELLIE AND
HER ZENN
Thursday, September 27, 2007
Harriett
Ellie of Strong Bindery (here in the Loganberry building) got some cool local press about her all-electric car, the Zenn. The Sun Press put this groovy photo on the front page of their edition today, probably because Ellie and the Zenn look so good in color, especially with the blue Lower Shaker Lake in the background. ZENN stands for Zero Emissions, No Noise and lives up the the name. Although it's governed top speed is 25mph (it's not crash-rated for highway driving), it provides everything a local commuter needs. And in Ellie's case, the extra advertising earned from all the turning heads is probably worth the price of the car alone!
