A picture named schrat.gifSounds good. London Review of Books opens shop. Books: New venture by a literary magazine eschews the pile-'em-high philosophy of the giants of the bookselling world. [Guardian Unlimited].

"Hard by the British Museum, in a building recently vacated by a spa that offered solace to the dying, a new old-fashioned bookshop opened on Monday.

It does not sell How to Succeed manuals, has no truck with discounting, and refuses to dally with two-for-the-price-of-one offers. There are no feng shui books either.

Instead its shelves are packed with one copy - in some cases two - of some of the finest titles in print, selected by a formidable team of critics."
