Description

NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE STARRING EMILY MORTIMER, BILL NIGHY, AND PATRICIA CLARKSON 

Short-listed for the Booker Prize
€œA beautiful book, a perfect little gem.€ €" BBC Kaleidoscope
€œA marvelously piercing fiction.€ €" Times Literary Supplement

In 1959 Florence Green, a kindhearted widow with a small inheritance, risks everything to open a bookshop €" the only bookshop €" in the seaside town of Hardborough. By making a success of a business so impractical, she invites the hostility of the town's less prosperous shopkeepers. By daring to enlarge her neighbors€ lives, she crosses Mrs. Gamart, the local arts doyenne. Florence€s warehouse leaks, her cellar seeps, and the shop is apparently haunted. Only too late does she begin to suspect the truth: a town that lacks a bookshop isn€t always a town that wants one.

This new edition features an introduction by David Nicholls, author of One Day.
