Radical books and organising for revolution finds a new home in Cork …
An, alternative meeting space and bookshop is now on Douglas Street, Cork – Solidarity Books. Under No Management :) Books not bosses!
The shop/space is now open for over three years, and is thankful for your continuing support.
Bookshop. Part of the area is given over to a bookshop – a very necessary venture given the dearth of genuinely alternative political and anti-establishment writing now available in the Cork area. Since opening, we have expanded the range of books available. We sell a wide range of left and alternative papers and magazines. (So if you are involved with one, bring it to us.)
Meeting Rooms. There has been a problem in Cork for some time for campaigns and for groups to find a suitable place to meet in. We feel the space has fulfilled some of this need, providing a cheap and suitable meeting place. To organise anything like this – just call in and see us to book a slot.
Coffee We stock 250gm bags of South Americam, Zapatista coffee. Feel free to ask to try a free cup before buying a bag.
Film night We want to see more radical activity and events in Cork. Our weekly alternative film night provides entertainment and education, and is aimed at filling this gap.
Winter/Spring/Summer Talks Our seasons-based “Talks” series has proven to be a great success, providing a space for more radical discussion and debate.
Book Launches We have hosted a number of high-profile book launches over the last year and hope to continue being available for new and established authors.
Where we are: 43 Douglas Street, Cork. (Douglas St runs parallel to George’s Quay which is on the South Channel of the River Lee. We’re close to the city centre.)
Opening Times: We are open 12pm to 7pm, Monday to Friday, and Saturday 11am to 6pm – closed Sunday
