A History of the Rag and Bone Shop of the Heart
The biography of the best bookshop in the world is published this week. To order your copy now go to Shakespeareandcompany.com or wait until September when it will become available in all good independent bookshops.
I am very honoured to have contributed to the book in part, (see below) and to have got to know Krista and Sylvia and the shop during the research for the project. If you don’t know the shop then I would urge you to pay it a visit as it is emersed in literary history and alive with enthusiasm for the written word, the absolute antidote to to corporate booksellers and a reminder of how important such places are at this moment.
