Thank you 🌟

Our bookshop audits always turn up surprises. On a recent visit to the @owlbookshop.bsky.social in Kentish Town we found our #NathalieHandal's LIFE IN A COUNTRY ALBUM sitting between Rilke & the inimitable PJ Harvey: youtu.be/lbq4G1TjKYg?...

(Not sure order was alphabetical; maybe levels of cool?)

We've been quiet for a bit, but we just want to remind the world that we turn 25 this year – 25, TWENTY-FIVE!! As indie publishers we know how special it is to be around this long and how much it signals the support of YOU, our readers worldwide. THANK YOU.
