Seven Kinds of People You Find in Bookshops

von Shaun Bythell

**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.

The seven kinds of people you find in The Bookshop of Shaun Bythell

In his short third book Shaun Bythell gives an outline of the many customers that he observes during his years as a bookseller and puts them in different categories. Like his first two books his observances are a delight to read with that typical British cynical black humour – funny and on point. Too bad it was so short. I would've enjoyed letting my mind stay a bit longer in The Bookshop in Wigtown.
