Books, and Books, and a Clock Tower

June 5th, 2006

I’m sure this is a big shock, but I went to the Printers Row Book Fair over the weekend. I didn’t actually find anything to buy, but I stopped at the library and picked up Ian McDonald’s well regarded River of Gods (it’s on my constantly changing To-Be-Read page). The weather was great and there was a good crowd at the book fair, and that’s a great stretch of Dearborn to walk down in any circumstance, with a few places to eat and drink and the unlikely clock tower of the Dearborn Street Station punctuating the street’s end.

    After reading McDonald’s “The Djinn’s Wife” in Asimov’s last night, River of Gods is now on my list of things to read.
