I would absolutely love to see this.


The Trials and Triumphs of Santorini’s Atlantis Books
In 2002, a couple of college juniors vacationing on the Greek island had a wild, wine-fueled idea: let’s open a bookstore! Thus began the saga of Atlantis Books.


In December 2005, the Guardian newspaper ran a list of the top 10 bookshops in the world ... topping the list was none other than Oia’s own Atlantis Books, which the article’s author, Jeremy Mercer, described as a “dream of a bookstore ... in a postcard-worthy Greek villa.”

Yes, but especially book-y ones. It wouldn't have been so great if it had been just another car dealership or shoe store.
