rotten luck
out
of his hands before it occurred to himhad a chance to get them around someones throat
ebooks aint books
he wanted to read With William
Burroughs: A Report from the Bunker sounded
desperate an who doesnt comportcontend with DesperateDesperation
on occasionCOMON
it was Burroughs Burroughs of Beat fame cut-ups queer renegade Naked
Lunch addict fame who shot his wife in the headkilling her at a party performing
the old William Tell bit of shooting an apple off the top of his sons head
that
stuck with him
he watched the television
show the heroic swashbuckling adventures but thought the crossbow was cheaty
progress
of the last ten books he went
on-line to see if the library had access to hard copies in its system sevenSEVEN were available only as ebooks
he approached a librarian seated
at the front desk to see what could be done about accessing a physical book
she apprised him that if a book
was acquired as an ebook THAT was the only available copy provided the Public it would not acquire a printed one
progress
You understand the library has
effectively chosen to censor books an prefer prejudice against some of its patrons Lemme put it another way it intends to offer only one ice cream flavour
progress
he no longer had to imagine all the
books he wouldnt read because there wasnt time enough rather he was denied them
