I can remember being very unhappy the first time I heard of Hay-on-Wye. My discontent stemmed from the fact that I was on a plane flying home from a trip that included Wales. My travel agenda had been so tight that I wouldn't have been able to detour, but still, the thought of being so close to so many books made me pout for a while.

Pick up any good books?
