Cairns is a bookseller’s journal—an ode to language and a manual for survival. Here you will find essays and choruses to keep you company on the way.
Paid subscribers help me do this old school job in a brave new world, and help sustain a one-of-a-kind residency program—I am truly grateful for your support.
In the words of Annie Dillard: “a life spent reading—that is a good life.”1
