About the UPB Post
We intend this UPB Post to be a kind of BERKELEY READS forum, a place where we and our intellectual friends can project what we find in books.
You can blog here, too, by sending not more than 300 words to us at this email address.
Occasionally we will post a cri de coeur for the fate of books and our bookstore, seeking respect and support.

And an occasional joie de vie as there is so much good life in the books we carry and in this place.

Tamalpais Walking; Poetry, History, Prints by Tom Killion and Gary Snyder, cloth, $50, Heyday Books 2009
A premier Bay Area woodcut artist and one of our greatest living American poets collaborate on the most beautiful book I’ve seen this year—already a local bestseller because we should all own one. It is history, it is poetry, it is the history of local poetry and the art of local natural history. The woodcuts are the best Killions you’ve ever seen, 72 views of Mt. Tam, in prints a la Japonaise. Just the cover is a thrill, and that’s just the start. Christina Creveling, UPB Manager
