Store description

I have recently begun selling books, and am based in Exeter, Devon. My grandmother, a bookseller for a period in Southern France, gave me a passion for second-hand books: classics, French literary fiction, philosophy etc.. I hope to learn more about the book world through selling books as well as talking and listening to other bookstore owners.
