DESCRIPTION
From Bonnie Garmus, the bestselling author of Lessons in Chemistry, comes Peck & Peck, a witty and heartfelt novel about ambition, creativity, and finding your place in the world of 1980s New York City publishing.
It's 1982, and recent college graduate Batter Gray is struggling to find his footing. While his friends pursue promising careers, Batter is folding T-shirts at the Gap, burdened by student loans and wondering what to do with his unusual talent for understanding poetry. Everything changes when he lands a job at Peck & Peck, one of the world's most prestigious poetry journals.
Inside the eccentric publishing house, Batter discovers a workplace ruled by thirty-nine editors, ruthless literary standards, and two feuding brothers who serve as co-editors-in-chief. As he navigates their rivalries, peculiar personalities, and uncompromising dedication to poetry, Batter finds himself caught in a world where creativity is celebrated but nothing is ever simple.
Blending sharp humor, memorable characters, and a thoughtful exploration of artistic ambition, Peck & Peck is a story about discovering your purpose and the enduring power of words.

"Love the rotating seasonal items and the consistent supply of specialty office supplies!! Jerrol's makes it fun to pick up page protectors-- if I happen to also purchase a chicken-shaped mug or gorgeous wildflower apron while I'm there as well, that's just a happy accident lol :)"
"In one quick visit, I was able to get help finding art supplies for a new project as well as order some new release books for my daughters for Christmas. It’s great to have a small business in town that can do all that!"
"What a fun quirky place. Art supplies, RC cars, and puzzles, yep! Need a coffee while browsing the vintage clothing, sure! Office furniture, yep! Need some university gear, they have that too! Definitely worth a stop if you're in the area."
“I came in for something specific and left with exactly what I needed. The staff was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable.”
