The Wild Detectives Bookstore to Open in Dallas

Calling it a "developing plot," the Dallas Morning News reported that a group of investors is working on a deal to open a bookstore called the Wild Detectives in Bishop Arts district of the city's Oak Cliff neighborhood.

"We love the neighborhood. There's a lot of cool places there," said Javier Garcia del Moral, one of the investors. "We want to have a place for creative people to hang out."

He and business partner Paco Vique chose the name as "a word play on the title of a novel [The Savage Detectives] by a favorite author, Roberto Bolaño," the Morning News wrote. They hope to open the Wild Detectives, "a venue for readings and lectures, browsing and buying with offerings of coffee, wine, beer, food and vinyl records," by late spring.
