In the early hours, as I amble towards the coastline, I observe the ebb and flow of the tides. Overcome with melancholy, I ponder my next move, only to be gently rebuked by the sea's melodious whisper: "Do pardon me, I've tasks to attend to."
Mary Oliver, with her keen eye and inquisitive spirit, delves into the minutiae of existence. From scrutinising tree foliage to lamenting the loss of her beloved canine companion, Percy, she remains exquisitely receptive to the wisdom concealed within life's fleeting instances.
In her masterful work, "A Thousand Mornings", Oliver embarks on an exploration of our quotidian experiences. With razor-sharp clarity, a dash of wit, and boundless compassion, she unravels the enigmas that permeate our daily lives, inviting readers to join her on this captivating journey of discovery.

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.’
