Sisterwrite was Britain's first feminist bookshop.[1] The bookshop, which opened in 1978, was run as a collective.[2][3][4] Sisterwrite was located at 190 Upper Street, in the Islington district of north London.[4][5] The bookshop also contained a cafe, called Sisterbite.[2][5]
Sisterwrite was notable for having a lesbian book section, and became a hub for the local lesbian community.[5][6]
Sisterwrite closed in 1993.[1]
