Famous for decades....A real San Francisco Treat! Shop here... A world famous bookstores from the time of The Beat Generation... amazing Bookstore...it has been. Vast collection of great book. Check their calendar...a real Go to placenin SF for decades..
There's nothing as emblematic from SF (apart from the golden gate) than City Lights bookstore. Funded by Ferlinghetti in 1953 is a great legacy for the world poetry and literature. It started publishing paperback only blocks in 1955 something that was truly revolutionary at the time. Publishing alternative poets and artists unknown at the time; Allan Ginsberg to name an example. The spark that fuel the San Francisco literary renaissance and the Beat generation that followed. Ferlinghetti's Sanctum.
Incredible bookstore I could spend HORUS in. They are very Covid conscious and made everyone in the store feel comfortable by asking everyone to sanitize their hands before entering. The history of this book place is unmatched and they truly have everything. A true San Francisco gem.
A sea of books and such gracious hosts. My name is Roger Browning. I am a born rancher in Texas, but my love has always been books. This is one of the most excellent book stores out there. I meant what I said about a sea of books. I could set up a tent with a good lanturn right in the middle of it and be content ever more. I am a writer bred of Texas. Born and raised in I guess a writers belt, where Larry McMurtry was raised, just a mere twenty or so miles away. Writer Black of Penguin lore, just twenty or so miles too, but like them I was bred to write and have written as many novels as both to boot. My new book that is out right now is a description for the dysfunctional and the troubled sometimes we see, but of a different twist in the writing that you might feel for its difference. A story about inheritance and what caused all of them to be that way. A story of a modern day ranching family split down the middle for their ways. One day I would like 'Rance,' to sit upon this stores storied shelves, as it is one of my favorite places and I believe for my wish for the protagonist of my book, that this for his life spent, is truly where he'd want to be. My name is Roger Browning. Author of 'The Reckoning of Rance,' now out on Amazon.
Incredible book store rich with history. The place takes ypu back to the jazz filled nights of the beats. The selection of books is fantastic with staff selections which are unparallelled. It's a must visit for any traveler to San Francisco
