• Overheard in the Bookshop

    The scene is a very busy bookshop. A bepigtailed elderwoman protagonist approaches the information desk. She pauses for a moment and then asks…

    Her bearded interlocutor pauses for a moment and then replies….

    “Religion is in the gold room, just up the stairs.”

    He pauses once again, and then asks, “Or were you looking for a more esoteric answer?”
