Passionate about books. One of our favourite pastimes is visiting Pickwick Books, a corner bookshop in Waterdown, Ontario. Owner, Des Brady, is barely visible behind a counter of endless volumes that are waiting their turn to be shelved. There is sufficient space to maneuver around displays of rare and fascinating books. One of Des' favourite quotations is, "Can anything be finer or more delightful?" (Chapter IV Pickwick Papers.)
When asked why he opened a bookshop, his only comment was, "I've always been passionate about books."
Pickwick Books is located at 325 Dundas St. E., Waterdown.
