Rare books
10 Duke St, Dublin 2
Tel: (01) 671 8676
You always see people browsing the window of Ulysses Rare Books, and no wonder – its selection just begs to be perused. Unlike many rare book shops which only stock one type of manuscript, this gorgeous shop houses a huge range of titles, some feted for their rarity, others for their design, with children’s books sharing shelf space with high literature. Crossing the threshold, you know you’re in for a sensuous treat, as you’re invited to feel the weight of the tomes, the texture on the embossed covers, and see different typefaces dancing across yellowing pages. Only a few books are behind glass, because this family-run business is a place to buy memorable gifts for the book lovers in your life. The service is friendly but respectful, never interrupting your reading and letting you lose yourself in the magic of a really good book.
