Behold, a splendid tome from Penguin's exquisite Clothbound Classics collection, adorned with the ingenious designs of the esteemed Coralie Bickford-Smith. These coveted editions boast sumptuous, vibrant cloth bindings embellished with gleaming foil accents.

Young Pip, a lad of modest expectations, endures the harsh reality of being an unwanted orphan in his sister's care. Yet, fate conspires to alter his course dramatically. A chance encounter with an escaped convict, a summons to the abode of an enigmatic elderly woman, and a meeting with the glacial beauty Estella shatter the confines of Pip's mundane existence. The plot thickens when an anonymous benefactor bestows upon him a fortune, paving the way for a new life in London.

One must ponder: are these events mere happenstance, or do they form an intricate tapestry of destiny? Join us, dear reader, as we unravel the mystery of Pip's extraordinary journey, where each twist and turn may prove more significant than it first appears.

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.’
