Did I wait to take this photo until this morning? Why yes. And why is that? Well say hello to Harvey Fierstein’s memoir that is my latest arrival. The most of the rest of this haul is a result of a spending spree on Nick Hern Books last month and the 50% off that Virago were doing on their designer editions last Friday as a belated International Women’s Day offer. I swear I cannot resist those hardbacks. I’m going to have to reorganise the shelves once I’ve read them all because I don’t have space to keep them together as it stands! The lone British Library Crime Classic is from our day out last Saturday when I trawled the charity shops of Stony Stratford – thank you Willen Hospice bookshop – and the Persephone is my latest in the subscription I got given for Christmas. Lovely stuff.
