Descriere Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore (10th Anniversary Edition) - Robin Sloan

\n \nThe 10th Anniversary Edition of Robin Sloan's New York Times bestseller, Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore, with a new foreword by Paul Yamazaki and featuring the story Ajax Penumbra 1969. \n \nA winner of the Alex Award and a finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize for First Fiction \nNamed a best book of the year by Los Angeles Times, San Francisco Chronicle, and NPR \n \nThe Great Recession has shuffled Clay Jannon away from life as a San Francisco web-design drone and into the aisles of Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore. But after a few days on the job, Clay discovers that the store is more curious than either its name or its gnomic owner might suggest. The customers are few, and they never seem to buy anything--instead, they check out large, obscure volumes from strange corners of the store. \n \nSuspicious, Clay engineers an analysis of the clientele's behavior, seeking help from his variously talented friends. But when they bring their findings to Mr. Penumbra, they discover the bookstore's secrets extend far beyond its walls. \n \nRendered with irresistible brio and dazzling intelligence, Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore is exactly what it sounds like: an establishment you have to enter and will never want to leave.\n
