Kiss me, I’m Irish! No, really.

My free book

In celebration of St. Patrick’s Day, Solas Nua offered metro-goers free copies of books by contemporary Irish authors all morning. Imagine my surprise when the raggedy homeless man outside of the U Street Metro near the Starbucks was not preaching or babbling or asking for money but was touting the books: “People!  People!  Free books!  You can’t beat free!”  No, wild-eyed crazy man, you sure can’t.
