Melville House Opens Tomorrow
January 18th, 2008
From Daily Candy:
“DUMBO, where an industrial shop becomes 2,000 square feet of office, bookstore, and event space. Socially/politically/religiously hefty titles are cranked out in the back; high-designy finished products are stacked on wooden tables and spinning bookshelves that hide spines during parties. (Indie event producers are encouraged to inquire.)
Already in the works: ten-minute lunchtime talks and unconventional author readings. For tomorrow’s opening, linguist Elizabeth Little explores dead words, made-up words, and words lost in translation.
Can they keep the neighborhood all aboard?
We think they can.”
Store opens Saturday at noon. Opening party, Saturday, 6 p.m.
Melville House, 145 Plymouth Street, at Pearl Street, Dumbo
