Forget Oprah's Book Club: Carroll Gardens Has A Book Selection Of Its Own.

oo




And This Month's Selection Is 'The Birthdays' by Heidi Pitlor
Advertised on a street pole

On Union, between Court and Clinton.

Someone went to quite some trouble in order to tie a paperback up onto this post, right below the No Parking sign. Securely screwed in and notched to better hold the ribbon in place, this odd little installation is either someone's idea of a joke or a private message.
Interested in finding out more about this work of fiction? Just click here: The Birthdays by Heidi Pitlor.

***This post is dedicated to Vince and Rita who patiently waited in unbearable heat with a bemused look on their faces while I took these pictures to share with you, dear reader.***
