KB Book of the Day
The Moon in Deep Winter
by Lee Polevoi

$0.99
Kindle Edition published 2008-01-10
Bestseller ranking: 460964

Product Description
This literary thriller revolves around Parker Sloane. When he returns from a dismal foray into third-world cash-smuggling to his childhood home in the woods of New England, it seems he’s seeing his country and his blended stepfamily for the first time—and finding both just as twitchy, desperate, paranoid and unpredictable as the underworld types he thought he’d escaped.

Before he can even unpack, Parker goes head-to-head with his relatives—his tyrannical stepfather, seething younger brother, newly evangelical mother, and his alluring younger half-sister Rita—and with the demons they never exorcised.

Delicately but disastrously, Parker attempts to keep his family from imploding, unaware that they have their own plans for escape. The Moon in Deep Winter combines the dark comedy of the Coen brothers with the doomed lyricism of Denis Johnson, creating an airtight world of homicidal family dysfunction.

I think they meant is there a physical store where someone could go to to buy the Kindle; so far I think, the answer is no.

No, there are no retail outlets for the Kindle... Your best bet for getting a Kindle other than purchasing online is to see if you can get one second-hand via Craigslist or some other venue.

However, there are plenty of places that sell other e-book readers, particularly Sony... They have displays in Border's and Target, and plenty of other places I suspect.

Maybe someone on  the KB might live near him and wants to sell their old outdated kindle (is there any such a thing?  Angry ) so he can see and hold it first.

sroecker0 where are you located?

Sorry, misunderstood. At least if someone is close, maybe it would be possible for a show-n-tell session.

There's probably someone in your area willing to show you theirs, but as for purchasing, I think you'll need to stick with buying directly from Amazon online.
