Mikazuki Books

Mikazuki Books is an independent used bookstore located in Kunitachi, Tokyo. We specialize in books related to the history, culture, and languages of the Middle East, Asia, and Africa, with a particular focus on scholarly works in Arabic, Persian, and Turkish. Established in 2012, we opened our second store in Kunitachi in 2021. Our inventory includes rare and hard-to-find books, ranging from academic texts to general literature, historical records, and cultural studies.

We take great care in describing the condition of every book, ensuring customer satisfaction as our top priority. All books are carefully inspected before listing, and their condition is clearly stated. As a small family-run business, we provide personalized service and offer unique books that are not easily found elsewhere.

We hope that those interested in the diverse cultures of the Middle East and surrounding regions, as well as scholars and collectors, will find books that spark their curiosity.

We ship worldwide using Japan Post, and all books are securely packed to prevent damage during transit. We also have clear return policies in place and guarantee the condition of the books listed.
