(To be fair, there is a bookstore of sorts left on Main Street, but Captain Blue Hen Comics, it must be admitted, might have a slightly narrower appeal to book consumers.) Also to be fair, the jury is hung on exactiy how good and virtuous a bookstore Volume II has been. Certainly the staff was knowledgeable and helpful, and owner Arlene Eckell deserves high laud for her anti-censorship stance and activities. The space and the stock, however, particularly in the literature and sci-fi/fantasy departments, was decidedly meager. Still, it was our own little Newark bookstore, one of the dwindling number of independent Main Street businesses. Furthermore, there are still those few among us who remember and mourn a plurality of bookstores on Main Street. As we see it, this disastrous state of affairs has been occasioned by two factors : the s pread of corporate bookmongery, and the declining power of The B ook as an objet desire. Of the former, we can get our dander up only so far.
