A WRY AND HILARIOUS ACCOUNT OF LIFE AT A BOOKSHOP IN A REMOTE SCOTTISH VILLAGEAmong the most irascible and amusing bookseller memoirs Ive read. Dwight Garner, The New York TimesWarm, witty and laughoutloud funny... The Daily MailThe Diary of a Bookseller is Shaun Bythells funny and fascinating memoir of a year in the life at the helm of The Bookshop, in the small village of Wigtown, Scotlandand of the delightfully odd locals, unusual staff, eccentric customers, and surreal buying trips that make up his life there as he struggles to build his business . . . and be polite . . .In this wry and hilarious diary, he tells us the trials and tribulations of being a small businessman; of learning that customers can be, um, eccentric; and of wrangling with his own staff of oddballs. And perhaps none are quirkier than the charmingly cantankerous bookseller Bythell himself turns out to be.Slowly, with a mordant wit and keen eye, Bythell is seduced by the growing charm of smalltown life, despiteor maybe because ofall the peculiar characters there.
