This is in part the future of bookselling. Physical books will never go away but they will lose pleasure-reading to e-readers. Books will become luxury status items. The most popular e-books will get deluxe printed editions, etc. Coffee table books will become more elaborate, more expensive.

Taxi Driver motivated me to both construct my own custom clandestine handgun delivery system, and to closely follow Jody Foster. I mean, closely follow Jody Foster's career.


Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

Thirty-five years ago, it wasn’t. For many who lived in the five boroughs, it was a desperate time, and you could feel it out there, day and night. For us, everything in Paul Schrader’s brilliant script — the loneliness, the paranoia, the feeling of barren, dirty streets filled with angry people — was magnified.”

Democrats can do that to a place.

I finally found out why the price of the book is 700 bucks: “This edition is limited to 1,000 copies, numbered and signed by Steve Schapiro.”
