Description
We are situated in a picturesque rural village near Cape Town
and have over 10 000 books, a large selection of artwork and 1000s of vinyl records.
Much loved by foreign tourists, we now offer books, art and music on the internet.
Carved in stone over the entrance to the largest public library in South Africa is a reminder, in Latin, that one is entering the "Treasure House of the Mind". Marion paid for her university fees by working there in the 1950s and ever since, and while she spent her working life among books and readers, she yearned to own and run a second hand bookshop that would unashamedly be a treasure house for the minds of intelligent and curious book lovers.
We buy books, records and Africana art in Cape Town.
When Brian retired in the mid-1990s they settled an hour's drive from Cape Town in the small rural village of Franschhoek which is surrounded by breathtaking mountains and is widely revered for its wine and cuisine. They bought a building in the centre of the village and Marion's life long ambition was finally realised. And when the Southern African Book Dealers' Association was founded a few years ago, Marion became a founding member.
Their son Greg lives close by in the big city, Cape Town , and is always keen to buy good quality books, artwork, and music for the shop. Karen, Greg's wife, develops and maintains the internet side of the business.
