Ann Patchett doesn't just write books, like her latest bestseller, "Commonwealth"; she sells them, at Parnassus Books in Nashville, her very own bookstore. As you might expect from a novelist, there's a good story behind Parnassus Books, and it's one that's bigger than just one brick-and-mortar retailer. Lesley Stahl of "60 Minutes" reports.

I ❤ her bookstore and just bookstores, period! I miss Boreders Books. It was so cozy and my favorite place to go for date night with myself. I was always the last person to leave with a smile and a little kind encouragement from the friendly sales people that worked there.😁😄

You can't discover books online - that's just it! I never ever left a bookstore empty handed....

I remember when she opened. It felt like all the bookshops in Nashville closed all at once! Davis-Kidd (when it was in Gracie's Plaza) was wonderful....but it moved to the mall and ultimately closed. I love independent booksellers.

I’ve always been in love with reading and physical books. I worry about them. How they’ll get along in the world without my care, repair, cataloguing during pandemic. And I miss all my bookstores in Cambridge, most of them out of business. You lazy Harvard and Radcliffe students! My reading life is a chef’s kiss. But. I am also in love with Karl. Ms. Patchett writes him so beautifully, how could anyone not love Karl w a ‘k’? This breaks my own lifelong pattern: I’m never physically attracted, or in any other way, to men with wives. Lucky me.

It is so weird that these stories never ask if the bookstore makes money or not. If I had to guess I'd say Patchett subsidizes its operation to keep it in business, and that it would soon be out of business without this subsidy. Would be interesting to know for a fact, though.

Nope, the business is profitable.

OMG! I moved to Nacogdoches Texas and can't get this. I only get ABC. Don't get me wrong, I love them as well. However, some of my favorite shows like, CBS This Morning, CBS Justice,CBS Sunday Morning, are amongst the shows I love to see. Please help, All Access I can't and feel that I shouldn't have to pay for since this is public brodcast and should be free anyway. I'm having show withdrawals. HELP, HELP, HELP. Sincerely a displaced Hurricane Harvey evacuee.

awww...that's a bummer! Hey try KZfaq TV that livestreams local tv. I know it's a cost but they have other channels as well and it allows you to record tv as well. check it out: tv.kzfaq.info?gaiachoice=true Sorry to hear about you being displaced during the hurricane. Glad you are safe. God Bless.

Hope ur doing well. I've read that the waters have toxic scheme calls that seeped from various facilities in the water. But local government won't and can't say anything because of deals they made with said companies. Be careful and I hope ur ok.
