I will be visiting Buenos Aires and Ateneo next week. I would like to know if the Marathon Bible by David Styles can be found in your store? Thank you

Ginger I have been watching your videos and it makes me want to visit Buenos Aires. This is a wonderful overview of what to expect when I do visit. The city owes you a dept of gratitude for stiring an interest in their city. I never knew it was such a wonderful place to visit. You should team up with Robert Duval when he visits his in-Laws, I hear he does a mean Tango. Anthony Cain

Thank you for the pictures. I will be there in early January, looking for works by Adolfo Bioy Casares.

Since moving here in 2005 from New York City, one of the marvelous discoveries has been that there are as many (or more) book stores here as there are there. It reflects the high literacy rate in Argentina and the culture's respect for the written word. Academicians will feel right at home. Thanks for the videos.

Thank you, My daughter just started a sememster abroad and is attending "UDDT" University and she is living off campus. Her first love is books and she has shared this wonderful Store with us-her parents. We will be in Argentina in October and this will surely be a visit for us...... Thanks, Bob Lippman and Family Saugerties/Woodstock New York

The Ateneo is amazing! I love bookstores and this is the best I have seen. It is like a Starbucks/Barnes and Noble in the USA but with an old, beatiful flair. It is worth visiting.

Certainly the most beautiful bookstore that I have visited, and I've been to hundreds!!! I can't wait to go back to Buenos Aires, just to visit El Ateneo!
