We talked shortly after the official launch of the store, which generated a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.travelandleisure.com\/travel-blog\/carry-on\/2014\/9\/26\/meet-albertine-new-yorks-newest-book-store-and-salon\">ton of fanfare.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>So, in addition to talking Bola\u00f1o, and talking about this man<\/p>\n<p><txp_image id=\"8592\"\/><\/p>\n<p>we talked about Albertine, it&#8217;s upcoming <a href=\"http:\/\/albertine.com\/festival-albertine\/\">festival,<\/a> and other aspects of Tom&#8217;s new job.
