The future is very uncertain and books can be very comforting This bookshop’s future will be more certain and more comforting if you buy some (many) books from us. #nopressure

Our lovely neighbours are moving - but thankfully only a couple of doors away. Charing Cross Road still has two secondhand bookshops. (Both owned & managed by women booksellers.)

This is how Marc Bolan remembers Charing Cross Road, in a short story written in 1964 when he had his 'nose pressed against a bookshop window' while 'farting in the wind'. The good old days indeed!

Such a joy to pick up a book by writer you've never heard off and then not being able to put it down again. This book (from 1973) is brilliant. Three long stories set in sunny Greece. It's right up there with #johnupdike or #richardford. Has anyone read #rachelingalls?

Proud to get a mention in Dutch writer Arie Storm’s latest book! The narrator steps into the wonderful world of Quinto Bookshop, recognises the charming young man behind the counter, and together they go on an adventure, involving #alanhollinghurst and #keats. Really! @ariestorm

If ever a book could be judged by its cover, it would be 'Johnny Angelo' by Nik Cohn. The dust jacket by Alan Aldridge perfectly catches the content. Apparently it inspired Bowie's Ziggy Stardust. #AlanAldridge #DavidBowie #NikCohn

Some books are so scarce you could almost think that they didn’t actually exist. That’s the case with most books by Phyllis Paul (1903-73). As far as we're aware, our copy of her 1949 novel Camilla is the first to be available in many years. #phyllispaul
