"I have no country to return to and no country to be banished from."

A new collection of Najwan Darwish's poetry is coming from Yale Uni Press. We're proud to have published his earlier books, Nothing More to Lose and Exhausted on the Cross, all translated by Kareem James Abu-Zeid.

did you know we work with Books Beyond Bars, a local books to prisoners initiative? books they want to read are updated on our website & you can order a book for them at a discount or just purchase a gift card to go to the program and we'll do the rest!

check out the list : kingsbookstore.ca/bbbhfx

Okay but hear me out:

A nighttime bookstore in which the only lighting comes from lanterns, tea is served to all who enter, there is an emotional support owl in each section, and a buy one / get one free sale occurs during every full moon.

Looking for same in Vancouver !!

I’ve mentioned this before, but if you’re short on cash but have an urge to shop, go to your library digital apps and browse the books, audiobooks, movies, shoes, magazines. It works really well to give you the same feeling without spending the cash. (Plus you’re supporting public libraries.) 💙📚
