It was a glorious day weather-wise -- finally, and business at the floating book shop was as good as it gets. It began with a bang. Natasha greeted me as I was setting up. I hadn't seen her in months. She bought three mysteries and two romances, all hardcovers, for which her husband overpaid. A gentleman bought two Steve Berry thrillers, another bought a book on Italian cooking, all of them large, weighty. Then author Bill Brown showed and picked up Rising Star. He has offered his book on Lou Reed on consignment to two shops in Greenwich Village, and 50 copies have sold - excellent! A bit later a handsome young man parked his bike and asked which books were mine and picked out Close to the Edge and Killing. His name is Imrul. Curious about its origin, I just looked it up. Unfortunately, all the info is hogged by a Bangladeshi cricketer, Imrul Kayes. I was unable to find the meaning of the name. Nonetheless, I am most appreciative of his support. The crates got even lighter when he selected the six books to which he was entitled as a gift for his purchases. My thanks to everyone, including the woman who donated four hardcover romances.
