内容提要:
This " celebration of the world of books" (Kirkus) from New York Times bestselling author James Patterson is a collection of riveting stories celebrating the heroic efforts of the people who are on the front lines getting our books into the world.? To be a bookseller or librarian You have to play detective. Be a treasure hunter. A matchmaker. An advocate. A visionary. A person who creates " book joy" by pulling a book from a shelf, handing it to someone and saying, " You' ve got to read this. You' re going to love it." " When the pandemic started, Patterson launched a movement, #SaveIndieBookstores [and]pledged half a million dollars, and, with the support of the American Booksellers Association and the Book Industry Charitable Foundation, the campaign ended up raising $1,239,595 from more than eighteen hundred donors...Somehow, the bookstore outlived the pandemic. Why??The Secret Lives of Booksellers and Librarians, compiled by James Patterson and Matt Eversmann, suggests a few reasons."–New York
