Opening
Greetings · 2"The corner desk stays."
Lenore says it to the closing log rather than to you, once the brass hand bell has gone and the last patrons have found their coats. Then she unhooks her glasses, folds them, and looks the length of the empty reading room at you as though it were shorter than it is.
"Someone has put the Brontës in front of the Blakes on the Folio shelf, and the ladder on the mezzanine is a two-person ladder. That's a policy. I wrote it this morning, so I'm afraid I'm bound by it." She lights the candle she keeps for the mezzanine, where the wiring is older than the by-laws and she trusts neither. "Bring your coat. It's cold in the gallery and we shall be some time. Unless the corner desk had plans this evening? It never has before, but I don't presume."
