Antiquarian bookstores are most often associated with the tranquility of visitors and the quiet due to old, dusty books. This one in Warsaw, however, is quite different. One comes here not only for the books, which one has to dig out oneself with difficulty from the piles piled up in a small room. Customers are mostly regulars, who treat it as a place to meet, talk and confide in people who are often strangers. The shrine is managed by Mr. Krzyś. Like a doctor, he seems to know what hurts his customers and what they need. Despite his coarse nature, he makes the conversations in the antique shop go on from morning to evening.
