GREY MATTER BOOKS

Thanks to everyone who braved the slush/snow/sleet to attend the 'Spring' sale this year. The sale ended on Sunday; Monday morning we set out in a UHaul with 150 nice, new empty boxes to pick up a collection, and another 200 boxes later we were still packing.

Welcome to the Grey Matter/Troubadour Amalgamation of Books, Hadley's #1 hard-to-find source for hard-to-find books and records. We are located just off the bike path at East St. and non-motorists get a 10% discount year-round. We have a large, constantly churned selection of scholarly, scientific and general stock, nearly all priced below their internet brethren. 

The result is the largest influx of new material in ages, if not ever. The collection consists largely of art, philosophy, Chinese history and religion, classics, Russian literature and formalist critiques thereof and many other well-chosen scholarly works. In addition, there are perhaps 300 Folio society publications, many still shrink-wrapped, as well as Pleiade editions, Loebs, and a choice smattering of semi-rarities, including books inscribed by Octavio Paz and Roman Jakobson.

Hours: M,W,TH, F 10-6; SAT 11-6; SUN 12-5; Tuesday by chance (usually 11-3)
