"A local bookseller partnered with a nearby restaurant to sell copies of a chef’s cookbook on-site; the team sold out of copies and the presence of the bookseller at the dinner helped prompt many guests to donate to a worker relief fund via a QR code placed on each dining table." - Kayla Stewart
"I discovered and still believe Malaprop’s Bookstore is the best bookstore around — it was one of the first places that convinced me Asheville’s creative milieu was fertile ground for the written word before my family made the city our home." - AFAR
"When Malaprop's opened 32 years ago, the now-bustling downtown Asheville was all empty storefronts and derelict buildings, and this independent bookseller became one of the anchors for revitalization. Marginalized voices have a place on the shelves here—there's an impressive array of poetry, fem theory, and queer lit titles—and poetry readings are as abundant as the inventory. Sit and stay a while at the café, and reacquaint yourself with the power of the written word, and the community that sparks it." - Stephanie Burt
