I just purchased two books, regular priced, from locally owned Greenwood's Books, off Whyte Ave a little bit.
Miriam Toews, A Complicated Kindness. (2004) $29.95
Leonard Cohen, Beautiful Losers. 1966. (1991) $9.95
Yes, I know, that says quite a bit about my reading tastes. I am quite the Canadian sympathizer, and i do read more than simply what the literary media promotes. But it's important to read what is promoted too.
Anyways, I checked Chapters.ca and Toew's book is $17.95. I want to support local. But i am really poor--poorer than family Greenwood. Should i return the book, and re-purchase online?
If i support local, you support local too. Deal?
(I don't know who I write to. Am I making deals with ghosts, now? Ought I to keep my bargain.)
