BOOKPEOPLE - Tanner Nancy Clark
- Echoes from the Book Cove The Early Years
This memoir paints a picture of a small town in the lower Hudson Valley through the lens of an independent bookstore, which serves as a stage for the actions and interactions of the community’s residents. At its center echoes the understated but characteristically perceptive voice of Nancy Clark Tanner, who founded The Book Cove in Pawling, New York in 1976, and whose presence unites the characters and stories that emerge in this series of delightfully original vignettes. Her writing evokes a world in which the exchange of books builds unexpected bridges, strangers quickly become friends, and personal relationships matter more than the bottom line. BOOKPEOPLE offers a glimpse into humanity’s reading culture and the joys, sorrows, and surprises of a small town bookseller’s life.
