      Aw that’s such a lovely bookshop. It’s such a difficult climate to run a bookshop in at the moment,  this will be a huge thing to recover from. 

      Some people are such skangers.

      So disgusted. Such scumbags around the city centre. This is why we can’t have nice things.

      I’m going to buy some stuff in there when they re-open.

      That really is shocking. It’s a lovely bookshop, was on Dame Street for years, am I right?  Carries a wonderful selection of books, I discovered Niall Mac Coitir’s catalogue of Irish nature books there (Manchán Magan-adjacent, they’re just wonderful windows into our natural world and folklore). Wondering was it just random vandalism or did someone have an agenda. Either way, a crime against the city, our remaining bookshops are precious.

      Why would anyone do that? It’s a big part of the cultural history of Dublin. Was this some kind of weird targeted attack?

      I mean there are scumbags around but they don’t typically torch shops.

      One of the best places in the city.

      Awful to see this.

      What a shower of Yahoos. Why’d anyone even think of such a thing?

      I wonder if it’s connected to the attack on the jujitsu gym down the road a few months back.

      how can someone get away with doing this in the middle of town?

      Ah no that’s terrible. I was just there for a book launch a couple of weeks ago, it’s such a great spot and Louisa (not Louise as this article has her) is a star, as was her dad before her.

      Hopefully the attention this attack gets might spur a few people on to go in to them and buy a book.

      Madness with Pearse St Garda Station not even 30 footsteps away.

      This bookstore is a true valuable gem in our city. It’s a sense of community an authenticity in a stretch of the city that has been all but totally overtaken by chains and vape shops. They are openly anti-genocide, which seems to attract violent resistance these days, wouldn’t be shocked if it was a proud Irish patriot that set fire to this independent Irish-owned business.

      Jesus, one my favourite places in the city centre 🙁 I hope they will be able to reopen soon.
