Comment from Zoe Smith

As a UNESCO City of Literature, Dublin has long nurtured its reputation for inspiring writers, playwrights and poets. James Joyce, Oscar Wilde and Samuel Beckett have all called the Irish capital home, and the city’s rich literary history has set the scene for an impressive array of independent bookstores. Whether you’re looking to pick up a bargain, hunt down a rare find or purchase a classic novel, here are five of the best places to start looking.

1) Chapters

A long-standing favorite among Dubliners, Chapters offers a sizable selection of new books, alongside an entire floor devoted to second-hand books.
