Ellie PinesMart 3, 2013I wish I never had to leave this beautiful three story bookstore! It feels like taking a step back in time whenever you go in!

Robert HawkinsTemmuz 7, 2015This is one of the most expertly curated bookstores I've ever been to. Long after the Beat Generation faded, Ferlinghetti's voice is strong.

Smith BlarneyEkim 3, 2010Just swim in the incredible selection, fantastic feel & history, be sure to have a drink at Vesuvio's next door & read yr new book
Amazing literature in translation section. One of the best I have seen in the US.
Matthew GidleyEkim 25, 2010City Lights isn't so much 'stocked' as 'curated'. For its size this has to be the best independent bookshop in the world. When you're finished buying go next door to Vesuvio and get drunk.
Scott KuriharaEkim 13, 2010Look across the street behind the big tree to see a banksy piece. "at first you don't succeed -call in a airstrike"
Contemporary Jewish MuseumTemmuz 6, 2013City Lights Bookstore is the epicenter of Beat History, founded by poet Lawrence Ferlinghetti and Peter D. Martin in 1953.
California GirlAğustos 6, 2012Excellent bookstore and with a rich Beatnik history. Photos of Kerouac et.al. abound.
Alex KimMart 18, 2013There's a picture with a funny caption about breakfast on the stairs that lead up to the poetry section..
Go to the third floor and find a copy of Ginsberg's "Howl" - the book that embroiled City Lights in an obscenity trial. Sit in the Poet's Chair and read it from start to finish.
MazdaAralık 3, 2010Both the store and the publishers became widely known following the obscenity trial of Ferlinghetti for publishing Allen Ginsberg's influential poem Howl and Other Poems (City Lights, 1956).
