Book of the Week: “The Bad-Ass Librarians of Timbuktu.” …SOLD!

Never underestimate the power of a good book title: you call something “The Bad-Ass Librarians of Timbuktu: And Their Race to Save the World’s Most Precious Manuscripts,” you will have my respectful attention. And then when you write a Wall Street Journal article about Abdel Kader Haidara, mild-mannered Hero Librarian and book-smuggler… yeah. I’ll pre-order that. For great justice.

And so, adieu to The Monster At The End Of This Book.

  1. Heh. It’s like someone asked specifically, “what kind of book would Moe Lane buy?”
