My old poet pal John Hughes just posted this, from Donna Stonecipher's great collection The Ruins of Nostalgia. It reminded me of how Starbucks took over a lot of independent cafés in Dublin, or put them out of business. I alway laugh at the notion that capitalism gives you choice.

New one today for @defector.com: in the wake of the most recent declaration of reading's demise, I was curious what booksellers, almost always ignored by the post-literate prognosticators, made of such claims. Here's what they told me:
