How many English-speaking booklovers are there in Florence? The city calls thousands of them to its doorstep annually, and as our doors have been open since 1979, we're local booksellers with a "history"!

The bookshop is chockfull of reading material for the general public, both NEW and USED, and covers the whole gamut - from light reading to modern literary fiction, from travel guides and travelogues to popular science and sociology, from classic fiction to bestsellers. New Arrivals and International Bestsellers arrive in the shop on a daily basis. Our Paperback Swap Scheme replenishes our used book selection with over 800 new entries per week.
