The Edinburgh Bookshop And if you can't get into the shop but still want to buy a copy of Susan Hill's book (or any other for that matter) you can call us and pay over the phone and we'll even post it to you.
The Edinburgh Bookshop 's Book of the Week is the marvellous 'Howard's End is on the Landing' by Susan Hill; an exploration of one person's reading when the author spent a year just reading books she already owned. We've all loved it and for this week only it has £3 off the cover price, making this beautiful little hardback only £9.99. Might... we also suggest that it's the perfect Christmas present for the book-lover in your life?
