hundreds of books, but Morioka never intended to create a classic bookstore.He notes that it's like a weekly suggested reading service.You just go in and directly pick up the book chosen for the week, relieving yourself of the burden of choice.“Before this bookstore, I had been running another one in Kayabacho for ten years，”Morioka said, “There, I used to organize book launches (新書發(fā)布)During such events, a lot of people visited the store for a single book.I started to believe that perhaps with just one book, a bookstore could be managed.”To finance the store, Morioka sold his huge collection of Japanese wartime propaganda (宣傳資料)The store is very small, with walls and ceiling barely covered with a thin coat of white paint.An old­fashioned cupboard with many drawers serves as the counter, while a wooden table in the center displays the title of the week.The bookstore serves as an exhibition of the book and its plot, making the story come alive.Morioka also asks the author to be at the bookstore for as much time as possible.It isn't clear how Morioka goes about choosing which book to sell.However, he has sold out a total of 2, 000 books up to now.“The concept of this
