Why Bookstores Matter in a Digital World | EP 109


Listen Later

What makes a bookstore more than four walls and shelves of paper? In this episode, I read a short essay about how bookstores can help us rediscover ourselves. I’ll also share a powerful book recommendation—The Best Poems of the English Language, edited by Harold Bloom—and tell you about my Kickstarter campaign to launch Edgewater Bookstore. If you’ve ever wandered the aisles of a local bookstore and felt like you were finding a lost part of yourself, this episode is for you.

🦸🏻‍♀️ Be a bookstore hero. I'm trying to open a bookstore in Utah and would very much appreciate a small donation - even $5 - to help our Kickstarter succeed:
