more details » Thomas Gladysz at Books Inc Thursday, November 18th, 2010 7:30pm Books Inc. 2275 Market St. (at Noe) San Francisco, CA 94114 415.864.6777 About the Event: Thomas Gladysz will be joining us to share from the book Diary of a Lost Girl, by Margarete Bohme. The Louise Brooks film, Diary of a Lost Girl, is based on this controversial and best-selling book first published in Germany in 1905. Though little known today, it was a literary sensation at the beginning of the 20th century. Was it the real-life diary of a young woman forced by circumstance into a life of prostitution, or a sensational and clever fake, one of the first novels of its kind? About the Author: Thomas Gladysz, director of the Louise Brooks Society, wrote the introduction to Diary of a Lost Girl, detailing the book's remarkable history and relationship to the 1929 film. - - - - - Books Inc. is a locally owned and operated independent bookstore with 10 locations in California. Books Inc.'s origins date back to the Gold Rush days of 1851, when Anton Roman struck it rich in Shasta City, California and set himself up in business selling books. That small bookstore was moved, bought, sold, burned, rebuilt and renamed, and became Books Inc. as we know it today in 1946. Today, with 10 stores and 200 employees, Books Inc. serves as a shining example that independent bookselling can survive and prosper, even if we must dance among the elephants.
