A bookshop, particularly an Olde Bookshoppe, is home to the world. It is a meeting place for all sorts of people, good and bad, old and young, amazing and ignored, and there we get a glimpse into their worlds. We may, or may not, ever see them again. But still, they have an effect on our lives, our behavior, and our own mental picture of our world. Glimpses: The Olde Bookshoppe is the story of one such bookshop, and the interactions between the staff and the customers who inhabit it, however fleetingly. It is a fun, but also thought provoking, look at the ‘ordinary’ people of this wonderful country, who are often not ordinary at all.
