Albertine – New York, New York A hand-painted ceiling of celestial scenes caps the shelves of books on the second floor of Albertine, a bookstore in Manhattan’s Upper East Side. It’s a dreamy sight, where planets and zodiac symbols entice visitors into a world where science and poetry blend seamlessly.
