KULTURAsbooks is a general secondhand, out of print and rare books store specializing in Art, Architecture, Photography, Film, and modern 1st editions. We also carry fine literature for all ages, a fairly deep selection of global area studies, inclusive of United States history, Political and Economic theory, as well as Poetry, Philosophy, Music, Science, Psychology, Travel, Cooking and Gardening books. We attempt to carry just about any foreign language to English dictionaries we can get our hands on and boast a very, very broad selection of books in French and Spanish. Our paperback fiction collection is extensive and generally priced at 50% off publisher's price. We also show rotating contemporary art works by local artists, Andrew MacDonald, Irene Coray and Daniel MacDonald.
We are in the DuPont Circle neighborhood of Washington, DC., Metro's red line. DuPont is known for the close proximity of its bookstores, Second Story and KULTURAs in Dupont proper, Idle Times a short walk to Adams Morgan. Books a Million and Kramerbooks & Afterwords for new books. Some noteworthy restaurants in the area: La Tomate, a favorite of the Clinton's, Mourayo with a great menu of Greek seafood dishes, Bistrot du Coin, for their mussels in any which way, Steak Tartare and a true bistro's Steak Frites and not least Sette's prosciutto, arugula pizza being a personal favorite. For better fast food Chipotle's newer Asian venture ShopHouse, Teaism's japanese cuisine and Potbelly Sandwiches. And to end an evening, Dolcezza's artisanal gelato and icecreams, very good stuff.
Maddy's Sunday morning's Bloody Mary's made by Chris are dreams turned true, what it should be. Their sliders and belgium beers on draft selection remarkable.
We buy books for store trade
and are happy to look at and
consider any books you bring
with the exceptions of computer,
self help, mysteries, romance,
westerns, inspirational and text books
If you must donate books, then we must give you store trade, as we feel it is only fair, which amount of course you are free to use, or not. But you could also assign it to a friend's name, which we will keep on file, for him or her to use, thus a sort of gift certificate.
