Spoon's Carpets by Kit Caless
A brilliantly quirky and affectionate look at a British institution: Wetherspoon Pubs and their incredible carpets. But that carpet isnt just for disguising spilt drinks Each Wetherspoon has a carpet that is unique and bespoke, with a design inspired by the history of the building, its locale or the name of the pub.
This is a book that has ‘dad’s stocking filler’ written all over it* Crafts Magazine *
I wouldn't bet against the frequently very funny Spoon's Carpets being a leftfield Christmas Humour hit. -- Caroline Sanderson * Bookseller *
[A] bizarrely brilliant celebration. Each location entry includes a photograph accompanied by Caless' entertaining and often quite surreal commentaries. * Bookseller *
He provides wistful and witty words on carpets, the people who walk on them and the buildings they are found in. * Inapub *
A lesson for all of us to look out for art in the unlikeliest of places. * UK Press Syndication *
