Description
Henry Miller grew up not too far from this quaint literary emporium, one of Little Warsaw’s only outposts for non-Polish books. And though this anti–Barnes & Noble carries classics on par with the Tropic of Cancer author, the quaint shop also proffers more up-to-date titles like Junot Diaz’s The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao ($25) and The Great Man from Greenpoint writer Kate Christensen ($24). Folks who are more image-driven will gravitate toward the graphic novel and children’s sections, and the quirky letterpress stationery ($4–$18). But word freaks still reign here thanks to free Scrabble and board game nights every third Tuesday of the month.
