Kinokuniya was originally a lumber and charcoal dealer in Yotsuya. After the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1923, the business was moved westward to Shinjuku where it was re-fashioned into a book store .

Andrea Esquivel

It's hot, stuffy and cramped with no AC . Don't expect the shitty employees to help you look for anything specific because they don't know their own merchandise. Good books though.
