City Lights Bookstore (San Francisco)

“San Francisco, CA. One of the pieces of North Beach that never changes. Home of the Beats. I remember my dad pointing out Lawrence Ferlinghetti to me here, and at Caffe Trieste, when I was a kid. UGH I love bookstores.”

“of course! a classic! city lights is one of those old hallowed bookstores that just has a certain kind of aura you feel excited... maybe a little awed... to be in, like getting to reach back in time to a city's venerated past (it feels a little like Paris's Shakespeare & Company in that way, City Lights' beat poets and pre-gentrification SF equivalent to Paris's Hemingway and Fitzgerald). sometime”
