I drove through New Haven yesterday.
Being curious about the recently released (and censored) book on the Danish Mohammed cartoons, I stopped in at the Yale Bookstore to see how sales were coming along and to take a look at the book.
The cover of the book is dull, sadly so. It has no art except a lonely "thought balloon". I was also struck by the huge banner on the front wall . I found the juxtaposition of censored book and slogans to be a bit troubling:
A customer service person looked up recent sales on the computer for me. The store had sold only two copies in the past two weeks.
Today, the book was #55,400 on Amazon.
