Fodor's Expert Review Hodges Figgis
St. Stephen's Green and Around
Fodor's Choice
Dublin's leading independent bookstore, Hodges Figgis stocks 1½ million books on three floors. Once considered Ireland's oldest, its independent claim is a bit bogus, as a giant chain bought it some years ago. That noted, it has the stock, staff, look, and even aroma of an independent bookstore, and might even still please James Joyce (who alludes to it in his Ulysses).
