This week's sponsor is the fabulous Seattle Antiquarian Book Fair, an annual event in which "the best bookstore in America" opens for two short days, puts the wonders of the world at your fingertips, and then vanishes — leaving nothing but a trace of bookdust.

This year's event is October 14th and 15th, at the Seattle Center's Exhibition Hall. Just $5 gets you entry on both days, with access to more than a hundred exhibitors from the United States, Canada, England, and Spain, sharing rarities, collectibles, and ephemera. You won't want to miss it.

Sponsors like the Seattle Antiquarian Book Fair make the Seattle Review of Books possible. Did you know we sold out our last sponsorship run? We're booked solid through the end of January, but if you have a book, event, or project you'd like to get in front of our readers, reach out and let us know. We'll be happy to crack open our calendars and reserve you ahead of the pack.
