About this title: The author, his wife, and their baby son move from San Francisco to Hay-on-Wye, in Wales--partly because it's cheaper, partly because it's the used-book capital of the world. In the end, they return to American, but in between the two moves they encounter a good deal of local color. Collins, a writer, also has some trenchant observations to make on the publishing industry.
Note: This is a general synopsis. Each listing is further described below.
