“In a town like London there are always plenty of not quite certifiable lunatics walking the streets, and they tend to gravitate towards bookshops. […] In the end one gets to know these people almost at a glance. For all their big talk there is something aimless and moth eaten about them.”
– George Orwell (1936), Bookshop Memories
