A Very Special Year by Thomas Montasser

For fans of 84 Charing Cross Road and Alan Bennett, this is the charming tale of a small bookshop and one very mysterious customer

‘Charming…A Very Special Year reminds us of why books still matter and how they can transform our lives and build bridges between people and cultures’

* Christian Science Monitor *

'I smell a book lovers’ dream beach read.’

* Words Without Borders *

‘A magical journey into the land of literature – captivating and moving.’

* Elle *

‘It’s not true that booksellers look after books; they look after people. A Very Special Year is a declaration of love to the guardians of literature and book doctors all over the world – an absolute gem.’

 

 

* Nina George *
