S3 Mini Episode: All About Bookshops - Niche Bookshops Everywhere

On this mini episode, I talk about niche and quirky bookshops from different parts of the world. Pillow-Cat Books is all about animals in books. Wonderland Bookshop! are all in on the Alice-in-Wonderland theme. Robert Humm & Co. is "Britain's largest railway bookshop". Libreria il Mare in Italy is a store that's all about H2O. Libreria Griot is an Italian bookstore that's all about African literature. Heading to Berlin, we've got the Bibliotheca-Culinaria Kochbuchantiquariat, a food lover's paradise, with over 15,000 vintage cookbooks. In London, Bookmarks is the place to be for radical and socialist reads. Now, let's cross the Channel to Librairie des Femmes, a Parisian gem that celebrates women's writing. La Anonima, in Madrid, aims to pay tribute to those women who have been silenced, unable to sign their texts, and have signed, in many cases, as Anonymous. Like Chicago’s Women and Children First In Brussels, it's a two-in-one deal at Cook & Book. This bookstore slash restaurant offers nine unique rooms with different atmospheres and book selections. And for all you theater buffs, head to Germany's EINAR & BERT THEATERBUCHHANDLUNG. From children's theater to operas, they've got all things stage-related. Finally, in the heart of Madrid, we've got La Librería, a treasure trove of literature dedicated to the vibrant history and legends of Madrid. La Casquería is a bookstore located in a stall at the San Fernando market in Lavapiés. Just like neighboring fruit stands, butchers, and fishmongers, here, everything is sold by weight." And The Nature of Reading is an environmental bookstore specializing in seasonal reading, nature writing, and climate change books, pulling together the joy and wonder of the natural world with the knowledge and passion to fight for its survival.
