Shakespeare & Co.: 'Follow White Rabbits'

Shelf Awareness

"When I first took over, some guide books said that the bookstore was 'resting on its laurels.' I think reading that criticism made me charge forward.... We will always be centered around books, but we're already more than a bookstore.
It just feels like the natural thing to do: expand, add and try new projects.... The bookstore is also such a stimulating place, where you encounter so many characters, that you seem to follow white rabbits down different holes without realizing it."

-Sylvia Whitman, who inherited the iconic Paris bookshop Shakespeare and Company from her father, in the lab magazine
