A Cappella Books Lectures
Atlanta, GA
A Cappella Books has been in-town Atlanta's only full-service general bookstore, buying and selling new, used, rare and out-of-print titles since 1989. Located in Atlanta's bohemian neighborhood, Little 5 Points, A Cappella Books is widely known for an unparalleled selection of Beat literature, progressive political and counterculture books, and, as the name suggests, books about music.
At A Cappella Books, we don't think of our customers as mass culture consumers. And we don't think of our books merely as merchandise. We like to think of the books as permanent literature, books you will find just as enjoyable, interesting and important years from now as you do today. A Cappella regularly present authors who reflect our unique character.
