Where to shop: Utrecht for that rare quirky book you can’t find anywhere else

Posted on Sep 8, 2013 in Things to do, Where to shop |

Ditch the e-reader for a day and head out to Utrecht for some good old-fashioned book buying. This select bookshop, owned by bibliophile and radio star Hiroshi Eguchi, is well stocked with volumes both new and old, and also offers an extensive range of weird and wonderful one-of-a-kind books by domestic and overseas artists and authors. Found on the way from Omotesando Station to the Nezu Museum, it also boasts one of the largest collections of independently published ’zines inside Japan. Keep an eye on the shop’s flyers for in-store events and exhibitions.
