BOOKSTORE

Three Lives
is our living room, and a living
place. It is a work in progress. We (the store and our customers) have
grown up and evolved together. People come here to see and buy what we
consider to be some of the best books available today. They also come to
discuss books, culture, and events of the moment. They meet for a sense
of community in times of national tragedy and personal celebration.
Intrinsically, books extend a graciousness that provokes discourse.
Three Lives & Company
is located in the heart of New York's Greenwich Village on the corner of
West 10th Street and Waverly Place. We are within walking distance of
the A,C,E,B,D,F,Q,1 and 9 subway trains.
