In his sophomore travel tome, "Neither Here, Nor There: Travels in Europe", the inimitable Bill Bryson embarks on a side-splitting journey across the continent. Armed with his trademark wit and a smattering of linguistic prowess, Bryson retraces his youthful escapades from two decades prior, venturing from the Arctic reaches of Hammerfest to the bustling streets of Istanbul.

With a keen eye for the absurd and a talent for self-deprecation, our intrepid explorer navigates a gauntlet of misadventures. From dodging Parisian traffic and outwitting Florentine pickpockets to deciphering German menus and gawking at Hamburg's red-light district, Bryson's observations are as incisive as they are hilarious. No stone is left unturned, no cultural quirk unexplored - he even graces the minuscule principality of Liechtenstein with his presence.

Following the resounding success of his debut, "The Lost Continent", Bryson once again proves himself a master of travel literature. With "Neither Here, Nor There", he invites readers on a rollicking expedition through Europe, offering a fresh perspective on familiar landscapes and painting a vivid portrait of a continent in all its eccentricity and charm.

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.’
