The Innisfree Poetry Bookstore has opened in Boulder, Colorado, a new bookstore-cafe specializing in poetry.

The Daily Camera has more details: “Brian Buckley has just opened up the new store with his wife and co-proprietor Kate Hunter. He claims his new bookstore is the third poetry bookstore in the country.”

Buckley and Hunter named their establishment after the William Butler Yeats poem, “Lake Isle of Innisfree.” The bookstore will host a grand opening gala on Saturday, January 15th. In addition, the owners intend to host readings every Thursday night. (Photo via)
