OUR SHOP
In a little corner shop in the main street of Healesville, Victoria, Verso opened in November 2017. Our loyal and supportive community has shown us that book shops are still indispensable places of connection, exchange and goodwill. From the tiny space that was our beginnings, we have now expanded – early in 2021 owner Nina wielded the hammer, smashing a hole through to next door! Now our beautiful store looks out to the leafy, street-side plane trees; our curated selection of books and gifts invites you to linger a while as you find just the right thing.
OUR PEOPLE
We are an independent book store championing the hard work of authors both locally and abroad: our staff are knowledgeable readers with various areas of passion and expertise. Everyone who works at Verso is able to advise you in finding your next read or just-right gift, with an uncanny knack for naming that book whose title you can’t remember, but it had a blue spine and just won an award last week…
OUR RANGE
You can get something from somewhere and it might suit someone. But you can also choose crafted, consciously made, boutique products and publications that are the fruits of clever people’s hard work and commitment. Our gifts, magazines, cards and games are all chosen for their considered production, ethos and beauty.
