巴諾啟示錄：小有小的好處

????這并不是說個體書店一帆風順。2011年11月，暢銷小說家安妮?帕切特在她的家鄉(xiāng)田納西州納什維爾市開設了帕納薩斯書店（Parnassus Books）。在一家當?shù)貢甑归]和該地區(qū)因為博得連鎖書店（Borders）破產(chǎn)而損失了又一家書店的時候，帕切特與離開了蘭登書屋（Random House）銷售崗位的本地人卡倫?海斯展開了合作。那兩家書店的倒閉為該地區(qū)留下了一個市場空白。那里也是范德比爾特大學（Vanderbilt University）的所在地，是一個文學社區(qū)。

????帕納薩斯書店剛好填補了這個空白，但不是所有的社區(qū)都那么幸運，能夠擁有一位安妮?帕切特式的人物。

????This isn't to say independents haven't struggled. In November 2011, best-selling novelist Anne Patchett opened Parnassus Books in her hometown, Nashville, TN. When a local bookstore closed and the area lost another one due to the Borders bankruptcy, Patchett partnered with Karen Hayes, a native who left her job in sales at Random House. The closings left a void in the area that's also home to Vanderbilt University, a literary community.

????Parnassus filled it, but not all communities may be lucky enough to have an Anne Patchett around.
