Hunting for Poetry In Seattle

My readers who share my literary taste will certainly be looking for places to buy poetry. Here in Seattle we have what is to my knowledge the only poetry only books store on the West Coast*, Open Books: A Poem Emporium. It was founded several years ago by John Marshall and Christine Deavel, who had been working at another bookstore and discovered, to their pleasure, that the poetry section, their first love, did best. It's small, but with a great sense of what to buy and sell they have been a great poetry resource for the Seattle area. They usually have some rare, out of print of first edition used poetry providing some collectible editions, and lots of new books, journals and magazines. they currently have about 9,000 titles. It's located in Wallingford, near the Winchell's Donuts.
