It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are. I highly recommend digging into the recommendations — we would never lead you astray — but today...

Bleak House
by
Charles Dickens
JRo
, September 04, 2011
Yes, "bleak" is in the title, and yes, you may associate Dickens with high school English, and yes, it's a long-haul read. Try it out anyhow. You'll find a murder mystery, portraits of addiction, a first-person narrative woven together with an omniscient third, charming and chilling eccentrics, and--lest I forget--spontaneous combustion. Dickens's first readers received his novels serially. Try setting the book aside for a few weeks between sections to heighten your anticipation.

Bodystories A Guide To Experiential Anatomy
by
Olsen, Andrea
JRo
, September 04, 2011
Read this book and follow its detailed instructions for a course in experiential anatomy. You'll get to know your own skeleton, muscles, and all the rest from the inside out, and the outside in. Checking it out from the library just won't do; you need to own this, spend time with it, and refer back to it from time to time.
