Jorge Carrión is a writer and literary critic. Including interviews with writers and librarians-including Alberto Manguel, Iain Sinclair, Luigi Amara, and Han Kang, among others-Against Amazon is equal parts a celebration of books and bookshops, an autobiography of a reader, a travelogue, a love letter-and, most urgently, a manifesto against the corrosive influence of late capitalism. Early life edit Carrin was born in Guaynabo, Puerto Rico on April 23, 1989. In essays on these vital social, cultural, and intellectual spaces, Jorge Carrión travels from London to Geneva, from Miami's Little Havana to Argentina, from his own well-loved childhood library to the rosewood shelves of Jules Verne's Nautilus and the innovative spaces that characterize South Korea's bookshop renaissance.

Picking up where the widely praised Bookshops: A Reader's History left off, Against Amazon and Other Essays explores the increasing pressures of Amazon and other new technologies on bookshops and libraries. A pleasing labyrinth where you can't get lost: that comes later, at home, when you immerse yourself in the books you have bought lose yourself in new questions, knowing you will find answers. They are places that provoke you intellectually, encode riddles, surprise and offer challenges. Good bookshops are questions without answers. Filled with anecdotes from the histories of some of the famous (and not-so-famous) shops he visits on his travels, thoughtful considerations of challenges faced by bookstores, and fascinating digressions on their political and social impact, Bookshops is both a manifesto and a love letter to these spaces that transform readers' lives. In this thought-provoking, vivid, and entertaining essay, Carrión meditates on the importance of the bookshop as a cultural and intellectual space. Jorge Carrión collects bookshops: from Gotham Book Mart and the Strand Bookstore in New York City to City Lights Bookshop and Green Apple Books in San Francisco and all the bright spots in between (Prairie Lights, Tattered Cover, and countless others). Jorge Carrion brings page-turning excitement to the extended essay form. Jorge Carrión discusses his books Against Amazon and The Bookshopsīookshops is the best kind of biblio-mystery, in which a cultivated and civilized detective guides us through the labyrinth of the world's stores, stopping to talk for a while, before plunging off on the next fascinating diversion. ![]()
