This book contains six stories and a play by the author, including The Bookshop - 'It seemed indeed an unlikely place to find a bookshop. All the other commercial enterprises of the street aimed at purveying the barest necessities to the busy squalor of the quarter. In this, the main arterial street, there was a specious glitter and life produced by the swift passage of the traffic. It was almost airy, almost gay. But all around great tracts of slum pullulated dankly. The inhabitants did their shopping in the grand street; they passed, holding gobbets of meat that showed glutinous even through the wrappings of paper; they cheapened linoleum at upholstery doors; women, black-bonneted and black-shawled, went shuffling to their marketing with dilapidated bags of straw plait. How should these, I wondered, buy books?' Read on in this rare First Edition, one among a bounty of out of print, rare and stunning vintage books on our second hand bookstore!","brand":"Country House Library","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55705435603323,"sku":"10547046","price":9.79,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2458\/8207\/files\/orig_489755_jpg.jpg?v=1756307856","url":"https:\/\/countryhouselibrary.co.uk\/products\/aldous-huxleys-limbo-chatto-windus-1970","provider":"Country House Library ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
