Reading actual books on public transit

Does anyone remember what those things are? They’re cumbersome and awkward, is all I got.

Photographer Reinier Gerritsen has catalogued NYC Subway passengers holding and consuming those big, bulky things, in a pretty gosh darn beautiful collection called The Last Book. Visit Gerritsen’s site for a look at all the purty pitchers.

Meanwhile, back on the Best Coast, we literary types still read honest-to-God books on our commutes all. the. time. What’s the last book you read or saw someone reading on Muni?
