The Feminist Bookshop

The Feminist Bookshop is a radical independent bookshop based in central Brighton. The shop opened in November 2019 following a successful crowdfunding campaign.

At the bookshop we seek to support, celebrate and promote women, non-binary and marginalised writers, creatives and entrepreneurs in all that we do. We stock a range of books written by and about women, non-binary and marginalised people, host events and provide a space to talk about issues and ideas that are important to us.

Our mission is to offer resources, recommendations, support and motivation to people who are looking to challenge existing conditions and explore different ways of understanding the world and being in it.

We seek to:

Direct people to information and resources on issues that are important to them.

Inspire our community by sharing novels, stories and creative ideas which support us to visualise a different future and alternative ways of being.

Connect people with work in which they feel seen, and with other individuals and communities with whom they can share ideas and discuss reflections and opportunities.

Encourage those around us, supporting and uplifting the work of marginalised communities, motivating people to engage with radical ideas, and to explore new possibilities.

We are so grateful to every single person who supports the work that we do and to all the amazing authors, creatives, NGOs, charities and businesses that help us work towards this mission.

We can't wait to see you soon!
