PFB Events: Rebecca Solnit, 17 February 2016

Thrilled to announce we'll be attending Rebecca Solnit's EMMA Talk on Wednesday 17 February from 7-9pm at SFU Woodwards, along with all of her in-print publications.  The event has been sold out for a few months now, but there will probably be at least a few rush tickets available at the door.

Rebecca Solnit is one of the very first authors we carried when we started adding new books to inventory a decade ago, & we're looking forward to finally meeting her in person.  If you attend, drop by the sales table and say, "Hi!"

What's News @ PFB -- Late October 2014

1.  Kind of short notice, but we're launching Image Comics' The Field, by our friends Ed Brisson and Simon Roy, at PFB Main Street, on Friday October 24th from 7-9pm.  Cheap graphic novels, complimentary snack foods & inexpensive but tasty Chilean wine. If you're in the neighborhood, drop by.

2. New bookmarks, featuring likenesses of Simone Weil, Ursula K. LeGuin, and Zadie Smith, designed by our good friend Don King.

3.  We're now carrying Short Stack Editions -- a series of small, hardbound cookbooks published in Brooklyn, each issue focusing on a particular ingredient.  Other limited-distribution food mags coming in the next few months!  If you have a favorite that you'd like to see on our shelves, please drop us a line, or call.

4.  Rebecca Solnit's Encyclopedia of Trouble and Spaciousness, new from Trinity University Press, just arrived and is now out on the shelves.

5.  Classy-looking PFB totes with art by graphic genius & old, old friend Rebecca Dart, coming in time for Christmas!
