Went into town for a work appointment today... Casually popped into Kinokuniya "just to have a look, NO BUYING"... See a #Persephone book in the wild, the first I've ever seen in a local bookshop... Get very excited, hold it close to me, receive strange looks... Tell myself to walk away... Small, evil voice says, "But you've always wanted a Persephone book?? TREAT YO SELF"

whimsy I am automatically intrigued because yas that's my first name but can you enlighten what a Persephone book is? :D 6y
batsy @whimsy Lovely name ☺️ Persephone is a UK publisher that reprints sort of lesser-known works by women writers. All of their books seem right up my street! https://www.persephonebooks.co.uk/ 6y
whimsy @batsy aw thanks! :D learned something new today! Thanks for bringing this to our attention. (I miss Kinokuniya so muuuuuch) 6y
