O counterculture! This one year-old bookstore, located in the midst of the recently-dubbed "Fairfax Strip," brings the shortpants intellectuals in by the score. As much as we wanted to start a literary wrestling match with the bespectacled proprietors, we were stunned by the amount and quality of the books for sale in such a tiny store. Jam-packed amongst the lovely murals and brick-work, you can find obscure German DVD's, the latest small-press graphic novels, 'Zines aplenty and, of course, tastefully selected fiction titles. Add to this their occasional reading series and the numerous bands that can be found turning their 50-watt amps up to 11, and you've got a lot of action in a tiny space.
