Ellie PinesMarço 3, 2013I wish I never had to leave this beautiful three story bookstore! It feels like taking a step back in time whenever you go in!
Robert HawkinsJulho 7, 2015This is one of the most expertly curated bookstores I've ever been to. Long after the Beat Generation faded, Ferlinghetti's voice is strong.

Smith BlarneyOutubro 3, 2010Just swim in the incredible selection, fantastic feel & history, be sure to have a drink at Vesuvio's next door & read yr new book
Amazing literature in translation section. One of the best I have seen in the US.
Matthew GidleyOutubro 25, 2010City Lights isn't so much 'stocked' as 'curated'. For its size this has to be the best independent bookshop in the world. When you're finished buying go next door to Vesuvio and get drunk.

Go to the third floor and find a copy of Ginsberg's "Howl" - the book that embroiled City Lights in an obscenity trial. Sit in the Poet's Chair and read it from start to finish.
