Hey Hey Hay [General] — rustle @ 12:47 am

hay

George Orwell said that second hand bookshops will never die. But in the UK half of all second hand bookshops have closed in the last three years. Tomorrow, however, I’m off to a small town with 38 bookshops: Hay-on-Wye. It’s the annual literature festival held in one of the most beautiful places in the universe.

I’m not planning on seeing much, maybe Christopher Hitchens at the Economist debate on Saturday, and solo on Sunday. The fantastic thing about Hay is the surroundings, the bookshops, and the wandering literati.

  1. No one can succeed without any hard work. Karl Max was successful, because he spent more than 30 years writing the book “Communist Manifesto”; Tomas Edison succeeded, because he had experimented thousands of times to find the best material for lights. Every success calls for hard work. If you want to suc-ceed, work hard first.zhongchengmaoyi110post
