Books on the Square

The best book stores are beehives of ideas, places where the art of browsing can be done through either rumination or conversation. That's what happens in Wayland Square. Since 1992, BOTS has created an inviting realm, a place to wander alone or chat with those who share your interest in learning. And its many signings and readings bring these ideas to life. Last week they hosted Dan Barry, whose latest tome, Bottom Of the 33rd, recounts the longest baseball game ever and the Pawtucket Red Sox fans who witnessed it.
