The Joy of Books – Bookstore Comes Alive, By John Siscoe and Grant Cogswell

This is a charmer. It has that gentle briskness that seems from another time, say half a century ago. Come to think of it, so does the bookstore itself.

John Siscoe owns and operates The Globe Bookstore in Pioneer Square, Seattle.

They don’t know the half of it. This morning when I came in I caught David Copperfield jammed into Jane Eyre, and Riddley Walker, Tristram Shandy and the Brothers Karamazov all on top of Madame Bovary.

Grant Cogswell is the owner and operator of Under the Volcano Books in Mexico City.
