On the bus, rolling through Potrero Hill
I usually don't photograph people on the bus because if the reader isn't interested, I can't just walk away. But, this time the bus was so empty, I could have. But he said yes.
He is reading Beasts and Super Beasts, by N.H. Munro, or "Saki." He bought it on 3rd Street and has read it pretty much in one sitting. It includes the famous story, The Open Window, set in Victorian England, about a man going into the countryside to recuperate from a case of the nerves.
The book he read before this one was Of Mice and Men. He found it misogynistic. The 200 page book, he thought, wasn’t long enough for Steinbeck to develop the female characters. However, he said, this was not the case in The Grapes of Wrath.
Usually he reads books about radical economics and anarchy.
