  1. In the Kindle era, a bookstore hangs on

    A long time ago, some poor writer took on the task of novelizing the screenplay of the Burt Reynolds-Dyan Cannon private eye movie "Shamus," filmed in a Hollywood age when leading men had chest hair and big mustaches instead of sallow vampire skin and infection-green eyes.

  5. Echoes From The Past

    The first black-and-white Zenith television set arrived at our Berlin area farm home in 1952 during my preschool years. 
    The first black-and-white Zenith television set arrived at our Berlin area farm home in 1952 during my preschool years.    In the early 1950s we were fortunate if we had two or three stations to choose from and along with Leave it to Beaver, Howdy...

  7. Booksellers' catch-22

    If you've ever walked into a Barnes & Noble, you have no doubt noticed the new releases pyramid front and center. If a book is in the news or written by a celebrity author, you will find it in this display. I always give it a quick circle and often...

  9. Winter book preview

    Looking ahead to books in 2013 is a little like predicting the Los Angeles weather: sunny, pleasant, better than average. The fiction fields are fertile, the nonfiction skies clear and the young adult books are fresh like spring rain.

  11. Has the e-book bubble burst?

    I like Nicholas Carr. His 2008 Atlantic cover story <a href="http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2008/07/is-google-making-us-stupid/306868/">&ldquo;Is Google Making Us Stupid?&rdquo;</a> (expanded two years later into <a href="http://articles.latimes.com/2010/jun/27/entertainment/la-ca-carr-shirky-20100627/2">&ldquo;The Shallows,&rdquo;</a> a 2010 Pulitzer finalist) helped catalyze a key idea: the distracting nature of digital culture, which encourages us to read widely but not necessarily deeply, flitting from concept to concept, piece to piece, like mosquitoes on a pond.

  13. 'Fifty Shades' dominates publishing in 2012

    AP National Writer
    NEW YORK (AP) — The story of 2012 in publishing was the story of "Fifty Shades of Grey," in more ways than one. E L James' erotic trilogy was easily the year's biggest hit, selling more than 35 million copies in the U.S. alone and topping...

  17. First editions: A rare present

    Never mind the Morlocks. For a book lover, the most chilling scene in the 1960 screen adaptation of "The Time Machine" is the one in which the Time Traveler is taken to the decrepit library of the Eloi race. "I can learn all I want about you from books," he exults. But when he picks up one of the neglected tomes, it crumbles to dust in his hands. "Yes," he states ruefully, "they do tell me all about you."

  19. Giving the gift of literature

    They're meaningful, beautiful, portable, and, by the standards of modern gift giving, appealingly inexpensive. They also ship and wrap easily, and allow me to put my money where my heart is: art, ideas and the written word. So why did I hesitate for so long to give books as gifts? For the same reasons, I'm guessing, that a lot of book-lovers refrain. The pitfalls, from giving a book to someone who already has it, to giving a book a to someone who hates it unconditionally, are considerable.
