What's new, May, 2013: A very rare first edition of Stranger in a Strange Land, SIGNED by Robert A. Heinlein.

We continue to feature a new novel by local author Vanessa Veselka: Zazen. We rarely sell new books (hard to compete with the big guys) but this one is so great we just had to do it anyway. Vanessa has been awarded the prestigious PEN/Robert W. Bingham Prize for a debut work of fiction. We have signed copies available; I hope you'll treat yourself to one!
