I saw you reading:
What: I don’t know. You weren’t holding the book up so I could tell.
Where: On the Downtown Mall.
When: This morning on my way to the post office.
Here’s the problem, citizens of Charlottesville: If you don’t hold your books up so I can read the cover, how can I feature you in “I Saw You Reading?” How can I point to the cultural signifiers of our town? Semiotics is at stake!

What a great idea for a blog feature! I might just have to ste . . . er . . .borrow it!
I found your blog via your very good review on IRB. I’ll poke around for while.
Thank you! The Last Window-Giraffe? That was a tough one to review.
Feel free to use “I saw you reading.” Let the word spread to every city and town!
