192 Books is an independent bookstore in Chelsea, Manhattan, opened in 2003 by gallerist Paula Cooper and former Henry Holt editor Jack Macrae, with a logo and typeface designed by artist Sol LeWitt. Located near Cooper's gallery, the shop curates a compact, carefully vetted selection spanning literary fiction, works in translation, art and photography books, poetry, and children's literature, favoring discovery over bestseller-driven stock. It hosts a weekly children's story hour along with readings and events featuring writers and artists, and its aesthetic reflects the minimalist sensibility of the Chelsea gallery scene from which it grew.
