Maybe they’re trying to tell us something.

Paul Bedard, a reporter for the Washington Examiner, tweeted a photo of the front window of Kramerbooks in the Dupont Circle neighborhood of Washington, D.C.

As you can see, the store placed Hillary Clinton’s memoir, “Hard Choices,” next to a stack of Aaron James’ “Assholes.”

The Amazon page for “Assholes” describes the book:

What does it mean for someone to be an asshole? The answer is not obvious, despite the fact that we are often stuck dealing with people for whom there is no better name. We try to avoid them, but assholes are everywhere—at work, at home, on the road, in the public sphere—and we struggle to comprehend why exactly someone should be acting like that.

Asshole management begins with asshole understanding. Finally giving us the concepts to discern why assholes disturb us so, philosopher Aaron James presents a provocative theory of the asshole to explain why such people exist, especially in an age of raging narcissism and unbridled capitalism. We get a better sense of when the asshole is best resisted and best ignored—a better sense of what is, and what is not, worth fighting for.

Kramerbooks is an independent bookstore “serving latte to the literati since 1976,” according to its website.
