  • Summary

  • Our guest this episode is Giovanni Boivin, the proprietor of The BookLoft, a 50-year-old independent bookstore in Great Barrington Massachusetts in the US. A “Storyteller turned Storyseller”, Gio (as he is known to staff and customers) turned a grade school love of story to a career that has manifested in creative writing and then relating the stories behind a tourist destination as a tour guide, at an historic house in the Berkshire region of Western Massachusetts he calls home. Since 2022 Gio has been the owner of The Bookloft, where he started as a clerk and wore many hats for years before becoming its steward and proprietor.

    The Bookloft serves locals and visitors as an alternative to the big box retailers who have rendered many indie bookstores extinct. But fear not if Western Mass is not on your itinerary anytime soon. Gio presides over a healthy online business as well, that will locate and ship titles domestically for your reading pleasure and gifting needs. https://www.thebookloft.com/
