“Oldenburg has given us an insightful and extremely useful new lens through which to look at a familiar problem… ” –Roberta Gratz, “Editor’s Choice,” New York Times Book Review.” “A day doesn’t go by that I don’t refer to Ray Oldenburg’s The Great Good Place. At a time when all great, good independent bookstores every­ where are under siege, we’re fortunate that Mr. Oldenburg has articulated our message so clearly.” –Mitchell Kaplan, owner, Books & Books, Miami, Florida

Third places are everywhere. The Great Good Place has been translated into several languages and is known in many other countries as well. We look forward to seeing the new edition translated widely, and welcome enquiries. We also welcome stories about your third-place projects!
