在互联网时代还没有完全到来之前,去书店看书买书是很多孩子的“最佳消遣”。在书架间徘徊,看到心仪的书,找寻一块可以落座的地板,这可能是我们大多数人的集体记忆。
这些记忆也让很多人在长大后萌生出开一家书店的想法,开一家不需要很大,但充满人情味的书店。也许这个书店里还可以养一只胖胖的猫咪,没事儿看它在书堆上打盹儿。等店里来了客人,便是一段缘分的开启。书店总会在冥冥之中聚集起一些有共同想法的人,在这个忙碌的人世间去还原、重拾人与人之间的互动。
随着电子商务的发展和新冠肺炎疫情的出现,我们一度以为,实体书店会像曾经遍布街头的电子音像店一样,消失在历史的洪流中。事实上,实体书店虽然面临重重困境,但绝不会消亡。
在实体书店,没有“购物车”,没有“马上抢”,也没有“猜你喜欢”,你可以漫无目的地走走停停、翻翻选选……这一放慢的动作,足以抵抗住快时代的浮躁与喧哗,让人们紧绷的精神得到片刻放松,获得心灵上的慰藉。书店已然成为许多人心中的“文化绿洲”。
作为城市文化的重要组成部分,实体书店充满着独特的地域文化色彩和浓厚的人文气息。如同现代城市的文化灯塔,引领着城市的思想潮流和人文风尚。
而今,实体书店可以是精神桃源式的文化沙龙,也可以是社交符号化的打卡胜地,亦可以是身心休憩的所在。阅读、交流、咖啡、影音、文创,甚至只是一种莫可名状的舒适氛围,都可能成为一家书店的制胜法宝,吸引人们驻足停留,融入其中。行走齐鲁大地,或许每个人都能找到属于自己的那么一家书店,重新爱上阅读。
书店陪伴了一代代人的成长,在很多人心中是无可替代的存在。图/王啸Bookstores accompanied the growth of numerous generations of people.They are irreplaceable for lots of people.
Before the full arrival of the Internet age,reading and buying books in a bookstore was many children’s “Favorite Pastime”.Most of us probably have a collective memory of hovering by shelves,and looking for a corner to sit in after finding our favorite books.
As an important part of urban culture,physical bookstores are filled with unique regional cultural traits and a profound cultural atmosphere.Like cultural lighthouses in modern cities,they lead the ideological and cultural trends of cities.
Now,a physical bookstore can be a cultural salon like a spiritual paradise,or an Internet-famous attraction that is socially symbolized;a pastime at leisure,or a place for physical and mental relaxation.Reading,exchanges,coffee,audio and video products,cultural &creative products,and even an inexpressibly comfortable atmosphere can be the winning formula of a bookstore,attracting visitors to stay and integrate themselves there.In Shandong,perhaps everyone can find a bookstore in line with expectations,which enables you to take a fancy to reading again.
