Thoughtful Books and Gifts

The Reader's Catalog is a collaboration between New York Review of Books and The Little Bookroom. The books offered here range from the Review's celebrated range of classic books newly brought back into print to The Little Bookroom's innovative travel guides and essays. We've added a group of not-so-guilty pleasures we hope will appeal to those passionate about the written word: journals and notebooks, pens and pencils, stylish reading glasses, a good light and magnifier, as well as a collection of quality gifts for children designed to foster a love of reading and writing ... and more.
