Letters

Ripping the seal of a pink envelope is like cracking open the bookshop’s wooden door. The space has a distinct smell— a delicious blend of old books, their spines brittle and pages yellowed, and a pot of hazelnut coffee brewing in a corner. I spent hundreds of hours breathing in this air, and missing it is an acute form of homesickness.

Concert series features local artists

This series was born out of the desire to provide fresh, accessible coverage of the Triangle’s local musicians through the Lifestyle desk, inspired by the work done by past arts desks at The DTH. It is a celebration of the musicians and music lovers who have filled Chapel Hill and Carrboro with unique melodies and lyrics for decades.
