Announcing our new European Bookshop!

Announcing our new European Bookshop!

 

Trafika Europe is so pleased to announce the launch of a modest European bookshop on our site!

Enter here!

We’re starting with a small, choice selection of fine European literary titles, working carefully with some terrific independent publishers so you can know that every title in our shop is special — a real treasure trove.

Please check out our brief (2 1/2-minute) welcome video above. In lieu of a shop assistant, it highlights some current shop offerings, to help you find that special treat for you or someone you love.

Shipping is available worldwide in most cases, direct from publishers or their distributors. Please note that some publishers will be shipping your titles from the UK, and others from the US. So there can be great variety in shipping cost per item depending on your location.

We’ll be expanding this shop over the coming months, to include many more European titles and types of offerings — more news about that soon.

Let us be your go-to place for fine literature from Europe. And thanks very much for supporting our efforts here at Trafika Europe with a purchase in our shop.
