Description

Bibliomaniac by Robin Ince

Hardcover – Atlantic Books – Mar 2023 – 311 pages

Why play to 12,000 people when you can play to 12? In Autumn 2021, Robin Ince’s stadium tour with Professor Brian Cox was postponed due to the pandemic. Rather than do nothing, he decided he would instead go on a tour of over a hundred bookshops, from Wigtown to Penzance; from Swansea to Margate.

Packed with anecdotes and tall tales, Bibliomaniac follows Robin up and down the country in his quest to discover just why he can never have enough books.

It is the story of an addiction and a romance, and also of an occasional points failure just outside Oxenholme.
