Book

Thursday night

I was back at my parents' house, hanging out on the side porch that faced 34th Street, looking through some books. I found one that looked pretty interesting. It was a paperback biography of film star W.C. Fields. The cover featured many thin, horizontal colored stripes, in odd colors: gray, pink, light green... repeated in a pattern, with large type superimposed. It was an odd-sized paperback, short and wide, and quite thick, and it included many black and white photos.

I always like reading about old movies and movie stars. Wonder why I dream about books in odd sizes?
