In the stark wilderness of 1920s Alaska, a spellbinding narrative of sorrow and hope unfolds. Eowyn Ivey's 'The Snow Child' captivated readers, soaring to bestseller status and earning a place as a Pulitzer Prize Finalist. This enchanting tale weaves together elements of magic and heartache, fire and ice, as noted by the Financial Times.

Jack and Mabel, seeking a fresh start, stake their future on a remote homestead. However, the unforgiving landscape proves challenging, and Mabel grapples with the lingering grief of a long-ago loss. Their world shifts dramatically with the mysterious appearance of a young girl on their property. As wonder and trepidation intertwine, they must confront the question: can they open their hearts to this enigmatic child?

Drawing inspiration from a Russian fairy tale, Ivey crafts a narrative of remarkable clarity and vividity. This instant classic, hailed as 'magical' by Marie Claire and 'stunning' by The Times, explores the unexpected places where love can bloom amidst the harshest of environments.

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.’
