“ This is literature as sustenance. And it is commonplace in San Francisco, where the average annual per capita expenditure on books is perennially among the highest in the nation. Same goes for booze — according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, San Francisco is the only city that ranks in the top three for both (New York is ninth by both measures). ”
Gregory Dicum in a post on San Francisco’s Bookstores and Readings Reflect a Lively Literary Scene for the New York Times (via).
