Randomness Guide to London Menu

A bookseller on Flask Walk just behind Hampstead Station.

This place is one of those quintessential ramshackle shops, poky and dark as every available space is filled floor to ceiling with shelves threatening to crumble under the weight of all the collected tomes. More newly acquired books are in piles on the floor wherever there's a space, and there's some particularly large piles of art books.

Most genres are covered and the shopkeeper was happy to help me find the London section, which covered about three shelves.

This is the kind of place you can find some great stuff in, but you'll need most of an afternoon to do so.
