The fashion in which books are written fascinate equally as the book itself. For example, Ray Bradbury pounded out Fahrenheit 451 on a pay-as-you-go typewriter. It was the early fifties before computers.
When he could not write undisturbed in a house with children, he went to the typing room at the UCLA campus. There, on typewriters that we can only imagine, he dropped change into a slot machine and typed madly for nine days. At ten cents a half hour it cost him nine dollars and eighty cents to write his best-seller.
A very special litttle shop on Cayuga Street...Much much more than s bookstore
