We just learned that our favorite online used bookseller, AbeBooks, has a Weird Books Room. Many of the books are jaw-droppingly weird, weird enough to make you question their authors’ and their publishers’ sanity. (We thought about using “strange” in the last sentence in order to avoiding using the same word two sentences in a row, but “strange” doesn’t quite cut it.)
Our favorite title is The Disadvantages of Being Dead. Other esoteric oddities include Old Tractors and the Men Who Love Them, and, yes, How to Poo on a Date.
Abe’s weird books room lists hundreds of such titles, all with cover photos.
