SUE BACHRACH

When it comes to bookstores — new or used — Cambridge is ground zero. If you’re looking for a recently published book, no matter how obscure or recondite, first walk purposefully into the main salon at the Harvard Coop, then approach the help desk with determination, and finally ask for SUE BACHRACH, a Radcliffe grad who, for a generation or so, has been helping students, professors, writers, tourists, and just plain readers find the volumes they want. Bachrach is the unsung heroine of literary Boston.
