Banksy in the Bookshop

Banksy Wall and Piece

"One of the best possible perspectives from which to tell a story is that of a ghost, someone who is dead but can still witness." - Javier Marías

 

Janet and John in the Bookshop

"A story was a form of telepathy. By means of inking symbols onto a page, she was able to send thoughts and feelings from her mind to her reader's. It was a magical process, so commonplace that no one stopped to wonder at it." - Ian McEwan

Nothing to Lose by Lee Child

Utopias in the Bookshop

"To tell you the truth, though, I still haven't made up my mind whether I shall publish at all. Tastes differ so widely, and some people are so humourless, so uncharitable, and so absurdly wrong-headed, that one would probably do far better to relax and enjoy life than worry oneself to death trying to instruct or entertain a public which will only despise one's efforts, or at least feel no gratitude for them." - Thomas More, Utopia
