Mother Foucault's Bookshop

Here you will find lofty bookshelves and vintage desks stocked with new and used books that cover a range of more serious genres, including art, philosophy, literature, poetry and cultural studies. The collection may be small, but you will be hard-pressed to find another store that offers a more complete and well-curated selection of intellectually inspiring books. Every single book in the store has been handpicked by the owner, who if often on hand to offer friendly advice and astute opinions. Charmingly old-school, honest and inviting, this little bookstore is a haven for the city's intellectually inclined readers. Events like book readings and musical concerts are also hosted here from time to time, further enriching the already alluring aura that surrounds this quaint store.
