Blake in the Bookshop

Blake by Peter Ackroyd

"Blake's poetry has great natural power when it is read aloud; it seems to demand the range and breath of the voice - not simply as a text to be read..." - Peter Ackroyd

Foundation in the Bookshop

Foundation by Isaac Asimov

"The characters within a book were, from a certain point of view, identical on some fundamental level ‒ there weren't any images of them, no physical tangibility whatsoever. They were pictures in the reader's head, constructs of imagination and ideas, given shape by the writer's work and skill and the reader's imagination. Parents, of a sort." - Jim Butcher
