Your regular reminder that most people in this country can't afford to move to another state and the inclination to say they're getting what they voted for in the devastation of a hurricane or flood or whatever the hell is a failure of common sense and empathy on multiple levels.

LAST CALL: $10 paperbacks on our site when you order 3 or more using code MN93820. Expires July 1st. Run! Don't walk! But: here are some titles on walking that are pretty cool and quite a steal at $10 apiece. www.upress.umn.edu/special-sale...

Book cover of Of Walking in Ice: Munich-Paris, 23 November–14 December 1974 by Werner Herzog. Vague gradiented background in neutral tones with title, subtitle illustrated as if typed onto packing tape.

Book cover of On the Wandering Paths by Sylvain Tesson, translated by Drew Burk. Picturesque mountains and blue sky in background, title tucked within, white block at bottom with author information.

Book cover of The Man Who Walked in Color by Georges Didi-Huberman, translated by Drew Burk. This is a book about James Turrell and cover is a Turrell-esque geometric shape window into a blue somewhat cloudy sky, surrounded by white.
