This fantastically cluttered antiquarian bookseller, founded in 1964, was American chess champion Bobby Fischer’s favorite bookstore when he lived in the city. He allegedly spent hours in the back reading and even had his mail delivered here. Among the English-language titles are old copies of the Icelandic sagas. Pay particular attention to the Norse mythology section in which some books are written in Old Norse.
