was pushed to read this after seeing it in bookstores a lot recently by talking to a park ranger who is friends with Paul and told me about both their roles in the SF State student strike in the 60s

it’s delightful—he seems delightful—, and the short book made me appreciate more the intention that goes into city lights specifically and well-curated bookstores more broadly. I would like to be Paul’s friend, hope to someday meet him (surprised I haven’t yet)
