In this episode I chat with Liza Gozashti, co-owner and manager of Brookline Booksmith, a family-owned and locally run independent bookshop in New England.
Since opening in 1961, they have played a vital role in shaping the world of independent bookselling and nurturing connection with their community’s curious minds through books and social discourse.
Their mission is to foster community through the written word, represent a diverse range of voices and histories, and inspire conversations that enrich our lives.
