To mark the anniversary of both D-Day (1944) and the day we interviewed Micheal Chabon (2007), we took a publicity trip down to London last Friday. Readers in London will be glad to know you can now buy the new issue of Transmission from:
Blackwell, Charing Cross Road, WC2
Foyles, South Bank Centre, SE1
The London Review of Books Bookshop, Bury Place, WC1
and a new addition to the southern stockists
John Sandoe Books, Blacklands Terrace (off King’s Road), SW3
John Sandoe Books is a delightful shop, with books piled everywhere (on stairs, tables, shelves - literally everywhere). It’s exactly what a bookshop should be like, as far away from the corporate blandness of the dreaded W you can get. Sadly bookshops like this are disappearing from many cities so go there and spend your pennies, even if it isn’t on Transmission!
With publicity done, we hit the Natural History Museum to look at the dinosaurs. Rather comfortingly, the exhibit has not changed in many, many years, conjuring feelings of school-trip nostalgia. I only wish I had bought a massive pencil from the gift shop.
If you’re not in London or Manchester and want to see Transmission in a shop near you, let us know. But if you can’t wait that long, the new issue of Transmission can be purchased here at our online shop.
