This book is a series of essays, sketches or anecdotes by an erudite antiquarian bookseller who has operated in London for many years, although he is American by birth. His trade has brought him into contact with many famous authors, who are often difficult and complicated. This volume includes encounters with William Golding, J D Salinger, J K Rowling and other luminaries. Each chapter is short, insightful and just the right length to fill a lunch break or to read last thing at night.
