Around Town: 192 Books

192 Books is a general interest bookstore located in Chelsea that houses a range of recent titles, past best-sellers, and selected rare and out of print books. They seek to “trace connections between art and literature by promoting a dialogue between readers and art lovers” and do so through various art exhibitions. In addition, they host readings, signings, and discussions.

Stop by on May 3rd at 7pm for a conversation with Mary-Kay Wilmers, best known as the editor of The London Review of Books. Wilmers will speak in conversation with Lewis Lampham, founder and editor of Lapham’s Quarterly, about the process of retrieving, curating, and presenting history in literary form.
