Book to Sell in Triangular Store
A local store has agreed to sell Kaplan's new book, but there's a small problem: the store is triangular. "I don't know how it's going to do in there," the writer says. "I really don't. The book is a rectangle, and that's because it was designed to sell in rectangular stores. Maybe even a square. But a triangle?" Uncle Jer's, located at the bottom of Hillhurst near the Vista Theater, has long been a fixture of the Los Feliz community. Residents appear to have even forgotten that the gift shop is oddly shaped. "I didn't really notice," said one recent shopper with a tattoo of the yin & yang symbol on her neck. Kaplan seemed far less concerned about his prospects at Pulp / Illiterature, a more traditionally configured establishment on La Brea. When asked about the superiority of her store's square footprint, manager Candice had no comment.
