U epicentru društvenih trendova od svog nastanka, Three Lives &Company često ugosti i poznate pisce na književnim večerima. Duh hipi ere i društvenog oslobođenja kasnih šezdesetih održan je sve vreme, pamnogi smatraju da je baš ova knjižara, otporna na opštu džentrifikaciju ovog kultnog krajaMenhetna, dokaz da buntovni duh nikad ne posustaje. THREE LIVES & COMPANY A cosy “corner bookshop” that first opened its doors way back in 1968, stands on the corner of West 10th Street andWaverly Place. A focal point of social trends since its emergence, Three Lives &Company regularly hosts literary evenings featuring renownedwriters. It has continued tomaintain the spirit of the 1960s’ hippiemovement and social liberation era, which has ledmany to consider that this particular bookshop, which has proved resilient to the general gentrification of this iconicManhattan neighbourhood, testifies to the ceaselessness of the spirit of rebellion.
