Interesting topic.

But, “I feel sacrilegious for invoking such numinous phrases, but it’s hard to think of a better personal metaphor for the Strand, New York City’s iconic bookstore located in Greenwich Village.”, horribly written.

At least the author was ambitious.

Author thought, let me use as many literary references as possible since the story is about a “book”store. Painful for sure.

Interesting Amazon gets $3B incentives, but $0 for Strands. Want to ask the owner, “how are those liberal policies working for you?”

No kidding. Pretentious arse.

Makes me want to go shut down a bookstore or two. Or at least the thesaurus sections.

The author couldn’t spell “rarefied” correctly, though.
