CIRCLING THE SQUARE
December 12th, 2009 by Clark Humphrey

Publicola’s got this big rant about what’s really wrong with Elliott Bay Books. Being in Pioneer Square, the writer “Heidi” asserts, isn’t really among the store’s liabilities. To her, the store’s real failings are (1) its little-bit-of-everything generalism (which is one thing I happen to love about it), and (2) its failure to embrace the Internet age (which frustrates me, but which I understand as a part of the store’s whole boomer-Luddite aesthetic philosophy).
