A droll odyssey of football and following the dream, it’s a novel he enjoyed very much by an author he had a lot of time for. Read along with us if you want to follow in Jon’s literary footprints.

Thankyou for your love and support.

It’s been a rough few weeks with a gigantic Jon sized hole in it but we have been fuelled by your kindness and stayed open. Our bestseller so far by miles has been the choice we made with him in mind for next month’s bookgroup.

It is always best to come into the shop to buy or order, and when ordering via the website you can use the payment link.

Due to current circumstances, we need to take payment in advance for orders sent via email. This will also be the case for larger orders. 1/2

On Saturday someone complained to me that Len Deighton hadn't written anything new for ages.
He's quite old now I think, I said.
Even so, they said.
Len Deighton is 96.

Always nice to see someone taking a photograph of a barcode, on a book that can only be bought new from us.

US president Donald Trump speaking in a microphone, wagging a small finger at his audience. A drawing representing the eponymous protagonist of Alfred Jarry's play "Père Ubu".

There is no doubt in my mind that the character which comes the closest to DT is Alfred Jarry's Père Ubu.

Herman Melville got a train from London Bridge to Sydenham in April 1857 so as to visit the Crystal Palace. Discovered this today in Hershel Parker's bewildering biography
