Michael Dirda is a Pulitzer
Michael Dirda is a Pulitzer Prize-winning book critic who writes for the Washington Post, and has written a number of books about books, authors and book collecting. On the 9th and 10th October 2017 he met up with Mark Valentine and Iain Smith and we followed him around a few bookshops with our cameras.
On the first day we visited George Ramsden's Stone Trough Books, a haven of calm and culture in the busy city of York (sadly, George recently passed away). We then visited Fossgate Books and Ken Spelman's. On the second day we travelled to Carlisle to the vast and labrynthine Bookcase.

"The Great Age of Storytelling" (Knopf, forthcoming)
"Browsings: A Year of Reading, Collecting, and Living with Books" (New York: Pegasus, 2015)
