We are very sad to hear that Caravansérail is to close at end of April. The choice of books and the space are as lovely as Anne and Laura who run it, and their support for translators and translated literature has been superlative. Translated World #translatedfiction
This is sad news. Caravansérail is such a wonderful spot, doing important work. Best of luck to Laura and Anne.
Always a favourite with bookshops tours - Laura & Anne unfailingly warm and with fabulous books. Wishing the best Caravansérail for whatever is next!
Bluestocking BooksUK Caravansérail Oh no! 😔 This is such sad news. One of my favourite book stores. It was more than just books, a great space for art and bringing communities together through its wonderful events.

Just came back from Caravansérail , from a great talk between Xinran Xue and Will Spence, the English translator for her latest book 'The Promise'. Absolutely fascinating, and so inspiring for an aspiring translator like me!
We are NOT happy to say goodbye Caravansérail bookshop. But support them now by buying up their stock!
We had a lovely farewell outing to Caravansérail to pick the best of their remaining stock. Got us some great titles. Not shown: ‘Annie Leibovitz at Work’ which Roland Glasser didn’t want to take out of his bag in case he scuffed the cover 🙈 Merci pour tout, Laura et Anne!
Sad that French/English bookshop Caravansérail is closing today. Such a shame that a fantastic establishment run by great people has difficulty achieving viability. Laura and Anne have done a great service to languages and translation, putting on fantastic events. 1/
