Here in Philadelphia, we are very lucky to have a wealth of wonderful authors at our fingertips. Find these great books here in the shop, and keep an eye out for upcoming book signings and author events. (Please note that these are in no particular order.)
1.) Extraordinary Renditions by Andrew Ervin Three interlinking novellas, set in Budapest, reciting the lives of three expatriates. Extraordinary Renditions is tough and sympathetic; combining music, love, war, and tension into a beautiful debut novel. Visit his website: www.extraordinaryrenditions.net. |
2.) Sleight by Kirsten Kaschock
Welcome to the imagined world of sleight, an interdisciplinary art form that combines elements of dance, architecture, acrobatics, and spoken word. Kaschock’s debut novel follows the lives of two sisters, Clef and Lark. An intense, oppositional, melodic, and ultimately very rewarding read. Visit her website: http://kaschock.wordpress.com/ |
3.) Manayunk by Thom Nickels The must-have book for those who were born and raised in Manayunk, or those who now call Manayunk home. If you don’t have one on your shelf, now’s the time to pick one up! One of our best-sellers! |
4.) Roxborough by Deborah Del Collo for the Roxborough, Manayunk, and Wissahickon Historical Society. The newest local addition for the iconic neighborhood series published through Images of America. For the natives, visitors, and Philly history buffs. Chock full of information and archival photos of Roxborough. |

It’s Movember, the month formerly known as November, which is dedicated to growing moustaches and raising awareness and funds for men’s health. Adam from The Spiral Bookcase has joined the movement and will be donating his upper lip to the cause for 30 days. Hopefully this month of moustache-growing will spark conversations, or at least generate some laughs; all in the name of raising vital awareness and funds for cancers affecting men.
