Very interesting endeavor by one of my favorite writers. (If you can get your hands on her short story All Little Colored Children Should Learn to Play the Harmonica, I can’t recommend it highly enough. Probably one of the best, most lyrical short stories I’ve ever read.)
Hard to know whether or not this will do anything for indy bookstores, but you have to love the effort.
