Chicagoans of the Year in Literature

The Book Stall is grateful and proud to be among a group of local independent booksellers named by the Chicago Tribune as Chicagoans of the Year in Literature in 2014. 

The honor usually goes to an individual author, and the Tribune noted that some of the country's best and most successful works in fiction, nonfiction, and children's literature in 2014 came from Chicago writers. "But would there even be a book community in Chicago to talk about without, you know, local booksellers?" asked the Trib's Christopher Borelli.  He continued: "...a number of local women have stepped up recently and either started new bookstores in the Chicago area or became the next-gen owners of beloved neighborhood institutions."
