Love, Nina meets Black Books: a delicate and humorous depiction of life in Scotland's largest second-hand bookstore and the group of eccentric book-lovers working there.
Shaun Bythell, owner of The Bookshop in Wigtown - Scotland's largest second-hand bookstore, offers us a glimpse into the challenges and mishaps of life in the book trade, from dealing with quirky customers to disagreements with his staff, including Nicky, who dresses in a ski suit and scavenges through trash.
In these humorous diary entries, he takes us along to purchases from old estates and auctions, recommends books (both forgotten classics and new discoveries), and highlights the rhythms and charm of life in a small town, always with a keen and sensitive eye.
