A
Prairie Avenue Bookshop
This is easily the classiest and most lavishly decorated bookstore in the city. The beautiful architectural tomes – including many hard-to-find titles – rest on hardwood shelves, and the thick carpet muffles the noise of customers. Soon you’ll want to don a smoking jacket, stoke a pipe and curl up in a corner leather chair.

‘Seeing the world through an Afrikan point of view’ is the slogan at this store, where big-name black authors give readings.

Powell's
This store for used-books can get you just about any book ever published. Shelf after heaving shelf prop up the well-arranged stock.
