      Thanks for that. I must have been in an odd mood when it showed up on my radar, but I will get to that Antrim book soon enough.

    I think you're gonna love Wilkie Collins, his writing is incredibly modern. Looking forward to your review of The Moonstone!

      Thanks. My TBR is embarrassingly swollen right now. The only thing to do is dive in!

    I've never even heard of Ironbridge, what a wonderful shop. Hurlingham Books in Fulham has a decent penguin wall. The Moonstone is great. I was shouting at the screen to pick up the copy of The Pursuit of Love from the cart outside to no avail. I think you have the most wide ranging, geographically, bookhauls of anyone I watch, never expected Stoke on Trent to appear.

      Fulham? That sounds very exotic. Do I need a visa?

    What a great haul! You should go to the UK every month! 😉😂

      In my dream life I would go every six months for sure, to see some theatre and do some shopping.

      Cheers! The closest we came to Lancashire was Stoke on Trent. Maybe next time.

    Very interesting. I didn't know that the single volume of Evelyn Waugh's "Sword of Honour" was an edited version? I've always wanted to read the trilogy. I shall buy the single volumes. Thanks for sharing your video!

      Just passing on the advice I received. I'm looking forward to diving into the trilogy also.

    What a fantastic haul! And a lovely trip. The Iron Bridge Bookshop is on my bucket list. That wall of Penguins - wonderful!

      It was definitely on my list and I will go back if I'm ever in the region again.

    Those tinted reading glasses are very fetching. 🥇As someone who who doesn't like hard backs I'm so jazzed about your paperbacks of Martyr and James. Wonder if there are options like that in the US?

    • @GuiltyFeat
      @GuiltyFeat  Месяц назад

      Not sure. Do airports in the US sell paperback editions of hardbacks like in the UK? I know that books tend to stay in hardback much much longer there. I recall seeing John Berendt's book Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil still selling in hardback in the US some 4 years after I had bought a paperback copy in the UK.

    The Big Clock is fantastic, that’s great to find the Penguin Green cover.

    • @GuiltyFeat
      @GuiltyFeat  Месяц назад

      So pleased you saw this. I was thinking of you the whole time I was in that shop. It was a real treasure trove with prices for those old editions that were not prohibitive. The last time I saw so many vintage Penguins was in Hay-on-Wye where they wanted 9 or 10 quid per book.

      @@GuiltyFeat I have been thinking about you a lot recently so it’s lovely to hear that you’re been thinking of me! I love Ironbridge, it’s a fantastic town for history lovers.

    Hello Daniel, I’m so happy your trip was so much fun! I went to Canada in May and have a lot of fun in bookstores. It’s the best thing! I also found a favorite author you might like. He’s like the Japanese Agatha Christie. His name is.Seicho Matsumoto and his newest book not available in the US yet is “Point Zero.” He’s credited with popularizing the detective novel in Japan. I’m now reading another book that had been translated a while back detective Imanishi investigates. I am over the moon about Japanese. Translated mystery and other fiction lately.
    I can’t walk as far as you can, but I did a lot of walking in Victoria Canada, sometimes 4 miles a day, which is more than my physical therapist recommends,
    I haven’t read the moonstone by Wilkie Collins, but I did read the woman in white which I really enjoyed.
    I also finished a Philip Roth Memoir patrimony. His writing is exquisite, but I have mixed feelings as I said in my last video.
    This was my first time visiting Canada and I just enjoyed the people the dogs, the books and most of all meeting my book to friend Lindsey in person. Take care of my friend. Shalom and aloha.

      Glad you had such a lovely trip. I haven't read a much Japanese fiction, let alone crime fiction. I will have to explore further. Aloha and shalom!
