Here's your chance to beat against the current of digitalized, soulless, and portable literature. Larry McMurtry, who you might know from writing Lonesome Dove and the screenplay for Brokeback, and nearly everything else good that was written about the West, is auctioning off 300,000 books, some from his used bookstore Booked Up and some from his personal collection, in August in scenic Archer City, TX. Who knows what he'll do with the proceeds...probably buy a Nook.
