Great their selections! I certainly love to recommend this place to my fellow bookworms out there, and be part of a great place and community of art lovers. more

I discovered this place a while back and been going here for a year now. I still love the variety of genre that they sell here. This will be my gateway to more reading. more

The St Mark's Bookshop is a great escape from the conventional Barnes&Noble and border's stores. This Shop in Downtown Manhattan has been around for more than 30 years and has a more sophisticated feel to it. You will find a great variety of books and many eccentric writings. You will find many works that the major bookstores do no offer. A few shelves are packed with books about art and many poetic writings. They have a great selection of fiction and non-fiction books as well as journals and periodicals for research. more

Love It! 3/23/2011

I think of St. Marks Bookshop as one of the more intellectual and artsy bookstores in town. It's been around for more than 30 years for lots of good reasons. The first has got to be their distinguished collection of books and both national and international journals and periodicals. If you're looking for indie fiction and nonfiction (including poetry), this is your go-to spot. Same if you're looking for outstanding books and periodicals on women's studies, film studies and graphic design. Best sellers are not their forte, although you can find them if that's really what you're looking for. more

Saved my life 4/30/2007

My professor has a fondness for choosing the most obscure books known to man and then expecting us to find them in short periods of time. I had been unable to buy Eva Hoffman's Lost in Translation online. I was really surprised (not to mention panicked) when I realized this morning that I'm supposed to have the book read for tomorrow's class. After calling every Barnes and Noble in the city, not to mention the Strand, Strand Annex, Three Lives..the list goes on..I was giving up hope. And then St. Marks had it. AND, to top it all off, they're open until midnight, which is great because I have work until ten. Friendly service, as well. more

  • One of the best-designed bookstores in the city, St. Mark's also gets points for knowing its clientele: Cooper Union and NYU students, plus those odd creatures who, years out of college, are still...
