Describe a dreary scene inside a shop with a marble fireplace, book rack, and a basket.
assistant
Quiet murmurs accompany the rustle of paper as clerks and customers alike rifle through the wares offered in the parlor. A white marble fireplace, clean and unused, displays a number of items on its mantle while a book rack in the corner supports assorted papers and bindings. Near the window, a white basket glistens in the minimal light available.
