Business continues to stink at the floating book shop except for one aspect - book donations. My thanks to the gentleman who bought All Things At Once by Mika Brzezinski, the only sale of the day, and also to the woman who swapped several books in Russian. Unfortunately, the current batch of those, 30 or so, is not impressing browsers. Late in the session a middle age woman approached and asked if I wanted books. The Salvation Army wouldn't come to pick them up and the library refused them. It's nice to have allies. While I was closing shop she went to her apartment across the street. It started to rain. I spotted her just as I closed the trunk of the old Hyundai. I hustled across the street so she wouldn't have to dodge traffic on busy Bay Parkway. She handed me two medium size boxes and a paper bag. I put them on the back seat. It was pouring as I drove home. It abated as I parked the car. I sat in the back seat as the precipitation increased to monsoon-like and sorted through the new batch. The selections are mostly fiction, a blend of serious and popular work. I didn't bring any home. The street inventory is now even more outstanding. Will it spur sales? I'm not optimistic.
