Book Passage, Corte Madera, Calif., hosted a reading last week by Erin Morgenstern, bestselling author of The Night Circus. To celebrate the event, members of the bookstore's first editions club were presented with a pair of keepsakes--each a signed and numbered limited edition--featuring text and artwork by the author, drawn from a Tarot deck she created. An unnumbered edition of the keepsake was also distributed to those in attendance who purchased a copy of the author's book.
During the q&a session following her reading, Morgenstern said she hopes to publish the deck eventually. The keepsakes were the idea of Book Passage staffer Thomas Gladysz. His wife, former bookseller Christy Pascoe, designed them.
