An embarrassment of excellent, dirt-cheap sale books hit the shelves this week. And I do mean excellent — there’s not a single Dick Francis snoozer in sight. Here’s a quick sampling of the riches…

• All Yesterday’s Parties: The Velvet Underground In Print, by Clinton Heylin
• Suicide: No Compromise, by David Nobakht
• Hot and Cold, by Richard Hell
• Seymore Chwast’s graphic designer must-have, The Push Pin Graphic
• Amnesia Moon, Jonathan Lethem’s first and most PKD-ish novel,
• The Other Hollywood, Legs McNeil’s oral history of the porn industry
• Punk Rock Aerobics, Richard Simmons’ tell-all biog (not really)
• Chicago’s Dive Bars

There’s lots more greatness, too much to list here. So stop by the store and check it out, already.
