The Bookseller at the End of the World

By Ruth Shaw

5 stars

This memoir of Ruth Shaw weaves together stories of people who come to visit her bookshops, in a remote village in Manapoouri in Fiordland. They talk about favourite books and Ruth shares her life accounts of her travels through the South Pacific with her husband in their yacht. "This book will make you weep and make you laugh and make you want to read more books." Maybe you might put her book shops on you bucket list to visit when travelling in the deep south of New Zealand.
