The book could turn into a collectors piece, so do not throw it away.
Anyway...'junk bookshop' is an oxymoron...whatever their condition, no books can be classified as junk
What you explained about the name of the city, I am amused. btw, in the pic, bottom left, is that a bridge going down into the water?
Collectors item....That was part of the reasons I bought the book.... btw what you saw in the picture, is the part of the reinforced river embankment, in an effort to turn the muddy river into River of Life!
