    Just reading the book here in Kyoto. This is the best example of how video and RUclips can enhance books. Absolutely brilliant!

      We couldn't agree more. We are constantly exploring new and different ways to get people engaged in literature and books and also come to Scotland's National Book Town. Best wishes

    I am an Australian who has worked in a second hand bookshop for 17 years. Recently found your book The Diary of a Bookseller in our $1 sale bin. I really would like to visit your shop, I recognise many of your customers, they come here too.

    Love this guys books, and love his dedication to his business and the wider community. I'm based in North Wales, and have been collecting books since 1995. The demise of so many bookshops has been tragic, as has the "rise" of Amazon as the primary factor. I've never bought a book online, and refuse to do so. When individual businesses of charm and character are driven under, that's when the loss will be most keenly felt.

      It's so good isn't it? We will be sure to tell Shaun of it's success and appeal in China. Hope to welcome you to Wigtown some day.

    Hello from Malaysia. Purchased this book from Kinokuniya bookstore and just finished reading it today. Thanks for this video it's lovely to be able to visualize the Book Shop in reality. Think I'm going to get myself the Confession of A Book Seller next.
