Quagga Books - Kalk Bay



Quagga Rare Books and Art  beckons you from outside, once inside it invites you to find a cosy corner, then settle in and enjoy the stay ..... don't worry about food, Cafe Olympia is around the corner.

Our friend George currently has an exhibition - 400 years of Maps and Prints of Africa,  as you can see the walls are covered with fascinating old maps.

My favourite corner is in front of the children's book cabinet.....I spied old friends- Alice in Wonderland, Wendy and Peter Pan and that naughty Amelia Jane- the urge to touch and smell them was overwhelming.

The exhibition will move to the Stellenbosch shop on 17 January.
