Description:
- This shop opened in the early 1960s as a progressive, provocative place for intellectuals. It carried books on subjects that dared to tackle mainstream ideologies of the time, including politics, religion, sex, gender and race. The place is still around, though substantially less controversial - perhaps a sign of the times. It boasts an impressive calendar of events and offers a friendly, comfortable setting for buyers, browsers and readers alike.
