Another bookshop

This is Rod's books on the Barbican in Plymouth. I have to say it is the most chaotic bookshop I have ever visited.







I had to take these quickly with my mobile camera (which is why one is blurred). But they don't even begin to convey the clutter. The corridor was barely wide enough to squeeze through and the piles were above head height in some places, threatening to tumble on the unsuspecting customer at any moment! God forbid that you should wish to examine a book at the bottom of a stack!

Sadly, Rod's Books is no more. he has closed to concentrate on selling on the internet.

There is also The Book Cupboard



Books, properly organised on three floors. Thanks to Peterphotographic there is a shot of one of the upper floors.
