DUELING BOOK SALES AT GREY MATTER
For the first time ever—or maybe the second, my memory is for the birds—we will be having twin book sales at both shops. To maximize confusion (always a priority), the twins are not identical. The Hadley sale will be the traditional 4-day, 30% off affair. The New Haven shop, as befits its diminutive status, will run 3 days (Friday-Sunday) and will offer a 25% across-the-board discount. I hope that sounds as senseless to you as it does to me.
Both locations have a ton of fresh material, notably a steady influx from the library of Samuel R. Delany (no sci-fi, alas, but plenty of lit, philosophy and theory). Also art books from two collections, weird old mysteries, more cartography and a bunch of Greek and Roman classics.
I hope you at both sales simultaneously.

Hadley sale: Thursday, April 9th-Sunday, April 12th
47 East Street ph 413-387-0160

New Haven: Friday, April 10th through that Sunday.
264 York Street ph 203-553-3180

To further complicate matters, we are also hosting a reading/performance, in our New Haven store, by downtown music legend Elliott Sharp Friday evening, during which no books will be sold at any price

We just got in a large amount of books from Samuel Delany’s personal collection, some of them even have his name in them. And this is just the tip of the iceberg!
