#HolidayOnBank with Prospero the Book Company at 128 Bank Street

(Because a Book is a World Unto Itself)

 

 

Prospero the Book Company at 128 Bank Street and Slater is an institution. The local bookstore has been at this location since 1980. That’s a testament to its importance to Bank Street’s community. Named for the character of the same name in Shakespeare’s The Tempest, Prospero means wealthy, favourable and fortunate—a dynamic leader that achieves visionary status. This is certainly true of Prospero the Book Company.

 

Prospero’s staff are experts on all genres of literature, so be sure to get their advice on books or ask them to help you locate a book. If you’re looking for a personalized literary experience at an indie bookstore, you’ll appreciate their exceptional customer service and great selection, especially of local authors. Now part of Indigo, the Bank Street neighbourhood bookstore accepts Plum reward cards and carries some of the same gifts. In warmer weather, check out their sales tables outside the store for great deals on bestsellers.

 

Prospero is part of historic downtown Bank Street, and accepts Bank Street Gift Cards. Get the card, give the card year-round.
