"Do you have a list of your books, or do I just have to stare at them?"
Shaun Bythell is the owner of The Bookshop in Wigtown, Scotland. With more than a mile of shelving, real log fires in the shop and the sea lapping nearby, the shop should be an idyll for bookworms.
Unfortunately, Shaun also has to contend with bizarre requests from people who don't understand what a shop is...
"Do you have a list of your books, or do I just have to stare at them?"
Shaun Bythell is the owner of The Bookshop in Wigtown, Scotland. With more than a mile of shelving, real log fires in the shop and the sea lapping nearby, the shop should be an idyll for bookworms.
Unfortunately, Shaun also has to contend with bizarre requests from people who don't understand what a shop is, home invasions during the Wigtown Book Festival and Granny, his neurotic Italian assistant who likes digging for river mud to make poultices.
The Diary of a Bookseller (soon to be a major TV series) introduced us to the joys and frustrations of life lived in books. Sardonic and sympathetic in equal measure, Confessions of a Bookseller will reunite readers with the characters they've come to know and love.
Shaun Bythell is the owner of The Bookshop in Wigtown, and also one of the organisers of the Wigtown Festival. His internationally-bestselling first book, The Diary of a Bookseller has been translated into twenty languages, including Russian, Korean and French.

好像来到情景喜剧的第二季,相同的模式(有些疲倦了),一些新的人物登场,虽然作者以他一贯平静冷淡的风格叙事,似乎没有第一季那么的热情毒舌,让人哑然失笑,只是真真切切感受到经营书店的累。

风格上面吐槽感觉有点太多了,跟作者的上一本内容也差不多,随手翻翻感觉还是蛮有趣的.

苏格兰二手书店老板的第二本日记。很喜欢,喜欢看中年人发牢骚,being毒舌,偶尔掏心窝。时常会笑出来,虽然这本不如上一本轻松了。
