The Booksellers
The society of rare book dealers and collectors who, in their appreciation of the delicacy and tactility of books, are trying to keep the printed word alive, previously looked arcane, but now fundamental to our civilization. D.W. Young's elegant and entertaining documentary, executive produced by Parker Posey, is a lively tour of New York's book world, past and present, from the Park Avenue Armory's annual Antiquarian Book Fair, where original editions can fetch hundreds of thousands of dollars; to the Strand and Argosy book stores, which have stood the test of time; to the beautifully crammed apartments of collectors and buyers. Fran Lebowitz, Susan Orlean, Gay Talese, and a community of dedicated book sellers who truly believe in the wonder of the item and the perpetual relevance of what's inside are among the distinguished guests in the film.
