Martin Latham, The Bookseller's Tale

 'Very eclectic, a mixture of the history of the book (rather than the history of reading), of libraries and the personal reminiscences of the former manager of Waterstone's in Canterbury. A comfort read, which also identified some more potential comfort reads - The Man Who Was Thursday, The Shooting Party and Cloud Atlas are all on my list now. Libby tested positive for COVID-19 this morning, every day there are more revelation about parties Boris Johnson has had at Downing Street and Russia are poised to invade Ukraine. It's also a dreary Tuesday in September and when I went to The Wheatsheaf last night they were out of proper beer. I've been in better moods.
