The legendary Avenue Victor Hugo Books has re-opened in a post-and-beam barn 10 minutes from the UNH campus in Durham. For nearly 30 years, Avenue Victor Hugo was a fixture of Newbury Street in Boston’s Back Bay, the store at one time holding over a quarter-million magazines and 150,000 used books. Awarded “Best Used Bookstore” multiple times by Boston Magazine, the store was a favorite of Boston-area authors and college students alike. During its years on Newbury Street, Avenue Victor Hugo also played host to Fiction, Galileo, and Galaxy magazines, all published by McCaffrey. In 2004 the store was forced to close due to high rents. 14 years later, in 2018, the shop reopened in Lee, New Hampshire. This rebirth has been celebrated by The Boston Globe, WMUR's New Hampshire Chronicle, The New Hampshire Union Leader, NHPR's Morning Edition, Foster's Daily Democrat, and WGBH's Greater Boston. AVH specializes in fiction and history but carries a select of all genres.
