44. MARTHA CAVENAUGH, the shop manager, a robust earth-mother who loves books and her job, offers cookies to Julie, Betsy, Lipsky and Patty while David looks over his reading selection.- MARTHA:
You sure I can’t get you something to drink?- DAVID:
Do you have any artificial spit? Everyone laughs, perhaps a little too heartily.- DAVID:
No, it’s an actual pharmaceutical product. Zero-Lube.- LIPSKY:
Really? Artificial saliva?- DAVID:
Yeah, but it’s way better ‘cause it lubricates. You don’t get that clicky sound you do with dry mouth. He demonstrates.- MARTHA:
I’ll have to remember that.- DAVID:
Next tour, I bring a case.- MARTHA:
In the meantime, what can I get you?- DAVID:
Water? No ice? Martha goes to fetch it. Lipsky and Betsy.- LIPSKY:
Are you a fiction writer, too?- BETSY:
I’m a poet, actually.- LIPSKY:
Oh, wow. 45.- BETSY:
Just got my first poem published inthe Kenyon Review. Really!- LIPSKY:
Wow! Congratulations! David observes Lipsky chatting animatedly with Betsy, disapproval registering on his face. 66A INT. HUNGRY MIND BOOKSTORE - ST PAUL - 1996 - LATER 66A Martha leads them to the side of the podium. On the move:- DAVID:
I don’t mean to be a prima donna, but I’d really prefer it if we didn’t have a Q & A.
