Libreria Acqua Alta, Venice, Italy 意大利威尼斯 Libreria Acqua Alta书店 This bookstore features classic volumes of American and Italian books packed in traditional Venetian gondola boats. But the show-stopping attraction is the back of the bookstore, which opens up to a beautiful canal. 这家书店的特色是把美国和意大利的经典书籍装在威尼斯传统的贡多拉船上。但令人赞叹的莫过于书店的后面,把门打开就是美丽的运河。 “It’s a bookshop right on the canal that floods every year, so the eccentric, stray-cat-adopting owner keeps his books in boats, bathtubs and a disused gondola to protect them,” writes Paris Review. “这家书店所在的运河每年都发洪水,所以那位爱收养流浪猫的古怪店主把书放在船里、浴缸里和废弃的贡多拉里来保护它们。”《巴黎评论》里写道。 The store is also lauded for its extensive art and postcard collections. 这家商店也以丰富的艺术和明信片收藏品而广受好评。 |
