v, 137 pages ; 19 cm **From the Sunday Times Bestselling Author** In twenty years behind the till in The Bookshop, Wigtown, Shaun Bythell has met pretty much every kind of customer there is - from the charming, erudite and deep-pocketed to the eccentric, flatulent and possibly larcenous. In Seven Kinds of People You Find in Bookshops he distils the essence of his experience into a warm, witty and quirky taxonomy of the book-loving public. So, step inside to meet the crafty Antiquarian, the shy and retiring Erotica Browser and gormless yet strangely likeable shop assistant Student Hugo - along with much loved bookseller favourites like the passionate Sci-Fi Fan, the voracious Railway Collector and the ever-elusive Perfect Customer. general SHAUN BYTHELL Bythell, Shaun Anecdotes Antiquarian booksellers Anecdotes Book collectors Anecdotes Booksellers and bookselling -- Scotland Wigtown Anecdotes 808.882 9781788166584 PPAK 210906 20210913150528.0 eng
