Biography Books

April 25th, 2003 · 4 Comments

Tonight when I left work the weather was pleasant, sunny and about 60 degrees, so I wander/walked out of Tribeca, through the Village/SoHo and up into Chelsea. I found this cute little bookstore on the corner of Bleecker and 11th street called Biography. Outside they had 2 tables full of bargain-priced used books… so many good ones for so CHEAP! I picked up a hardcover copy of a book called You Are Not A Stranger Here that Wendy recommended to me a while back for only $7.98. I also snagged a softcover copy of Angela’s Ashes for $5.98. My dad sent this book to me quite a while ago and it was lost in the mail. I ended up strolling around for about an hour and a half, thinking about how great it’s going to be this spring/summer when the weather is consistently warm.

    angela’s ashes is a great book. a little depressing but frank mccourt’s a great writer nonetheless.
