Lots of people write lots of words about food, but a bar? Not so much.

The Tender Bar is Pulitzer Prize winning journalist JR Moehringer's tale of growing up, finding and defining himself in terms of a bar. His writing style is compelling and easy to read, the story personal and at times not that easy to read. A good read for a rainy weekend or a long plane ride. Interesting, if not unusual, insight into what makes a bar work, even if it is dysfunctional.

Thanks for the heads up. A postman knows more about you than they want to know. You want a good read on a neighborhood ask a good bartender.
