The People’s Bookshop
A radical, independent, new and second-hand bookshop
The People’s Bookshop is an independent, radical bookshop in the heart of Durham City. Dealing in new and second-hand books, we aim to fill the gaps left behind by the headlong rush towards best-sellers, e-books and add-on sales. We believe that bookshops should reflect their communities and radical bookshops are an important part of the creation of a better world. If this were only about big ideas, it would be centred on the idea that ‘another world is possible’, but it is also about those little ideas, local histories and forgotten stories that are only preserved in the pages of actual, real books
