Left Bank Books is a part of a dying breed in this country. Independent stores are on the way out and the big conglomerate is the place to go.
In the battle for local content, the staff at Left Bank Books book is right on top of current events. On the day that Maya Angelou “passed quietly” not three hours later a shrine was set up in the store for her.
A fine selection of current books is in the store, and a decent selection of used books. A bust of T.S. Elliot outside the shop will let you know that literature is close by. I was wondering about all the eyes and the grin on the cake but when you check out the artist Peat Wollaeger you will understand.
