With over 4 million copies sold and a Showtime/Paramount+ adaptation starring Ewan McGregor, this captivating tale from the #1 New York Times bestselling author has taken the literary world by storm. Critics and readers alike have hailed it as witty, insightful, and utterly charming.

On a fateful day in June 1922, Count Alexander Rostov, a man of impeccable breeding and aristocratic credentials, finds himself escorted from the Kremlin to the opulent Hotel Metropol. Sentenced to indefinite house arrest by a Bolshevik tribunal, the Count must trade his lavish suite for a humble attic room, all while Russia experiences decades of tumultuous change beyond the hotel's revolving doors.

As the Count navigates his newfound confinement, readers are invited to ponder: Can a life bereft of luxury truly be the most fulfilling? This exquisitely crafted novel offers a fresh perspective on Russian aristocracy, proving that not all tales of the nobility need be steeped in gloom and despair.

Amor Towles' "A Gentleman in Moscow" has garnered numerous accolades, including Book of the Year honours from The Times, Sunday Times, Mail on Sunday, Daily Express, and Irish Times. It has also been lauded by literary luminaries such as Barack Obama and Bill Gates, cementing its status as a modern classic and a must-read for discerning bibliophiles.

Sherlock & Pages is a little bookshop with a big heart. We are based in Frome, Somerset, England and curate lists of books in the areas we are passionate about – landscape, nature, history, and heritage. In short, the conservation of all we’ve inherited and all we are responsible to pass on. We aim to inspire and be inspired, to form a literary culture of care and passion about this precious planet we call home.

This is a shop where you might find something you haven’t seen before, and we like to think we’ve got something for everyone. We choose each of our books with care and for a reason. This is because our physical store is small but beautifully formed, holding only around 1200 titles at any one time. We try and recreate the feel of the shop wherever we are online, to reflect our niche categories and personality.

We have an active social media presence and aim to share our story with all our friends. The long-term goal is to build a hub for the books and writers we believe in. Who knows where our adventure will lead but by supporting Sherlock & Pages you’re helping us to add a further layer of magic to our little corner of the world. If you haven’t visited our physical store, one day you might just make a literary pilgrimage down to Somerset.

Our tagline is ‘Long Live the Hedgerows’ and our symbol a hibernating dormouse. If you want to support an independent with a unique character and which will share stories with you for years to come, then choose Sherlock & Pages. The world needs bookshops with soul, for they are ‘citadels of light.’
