I want Parnassus in my town!
When I’ve started reading The Bookstore Strikes Back in the newest Atlantic I was thinking, well this is another nerdy lady who has too much of free time and is trying to make a fuss around her. How wrong I was. Or actually how well Ann Patchett is able to tell this story. As I’m always saying, I would read manual to screw driver with flush on my face if it was written by Stephen King. Some people just have this gift to tell even most boring story as if it was in fact the greatest adventure. And Mrs. Patchett has ability to sell any, even the craziest, idea just by creating interesting story around it. And she sold it to me.
