The San Francisco Book Scavenger Hunt

Submitted by the Event Organizer

We’re excited to be starting The S.F. Book Scavenger Hunt! We started The LA Book Scavenger Hunt 6 months ago and are looking forward to hiding books throughout North Beach, Nob Hill, The Lower Haight, and many other neighborhoods

We will post images of the books on Sunday at 2PM; each image contains a link to the location coordinates. Click on the photo and follow the link to view the book’s location and if the book has been found. Most participants click the found button, but some do not; a “No” could mean that the book is still available. You can also use the full list at Morphkey, linked below.

Our goal is to create a community in San Francisco for people who love books, music, and film and to be able to communicate with one another. You can connect with other scavenger hunt participants who enjoy the same books via Morphkey; just click the “Connect With Others” button underneath “Others Interested In This Book” for each book in this week’s Scavenger Hunt

We hope that you enjoy yourself while social distancing, and discover exceptional literary titles ranging from Viennese modernist works to obscure Latin American writers. Look for Kobo Abe’s The Woman in the Dunes, Julio Cortazar’s Blow-Up and Other Stories, Raymond Queneau’s Exercises in Style, Adolfo Bioy Casares’ The Invention of Morel, Eileen Chang’s Love in a Fallen City, Italo Svevo’s Zeno’s Conscience, Alfred Doblin’s Berlin Alexanderplatz, Robert Bresson’s Interviews, Robert Musil’s Five Women, Joseph Joubert’s Notebooks, Will Alexander’s The Sri Lankan Loxodrome and others!
