...The bookstore owner was terrified when I stopped in today, and the place was almost deserted. Everyone is terrified, since there's been another wave of bodies on the shores and no one wants to go outside and risk whatever killed those people. I bought everything I could reasonably afford and told him to take the day off and spend it with his family.
Does anyone want any of these books? The Iliad? A few works of Shakespeare... I have a fair number.
