    84, Charing Cross Rd is absolutely delightful. you read it in a heartbeat and wish it would never end...alas!, it is shorter than you had imagined and it soon leaves you desperate for more. but then you turn the page, and stumble upon The Duchess of Bloomsbury Street, HH's account of her coveted first visit to London, and you are most thankful to her for having kept a diary.

    a gem not to be missed.

    Indoubtly I loved the romantic idea of two people connecting through books, mailing each other in unique handwrited letters, personalizing each with a bit of themshelves. It was such a pleasurable reading that I highly recommend it for anyone, specially if you can get a paperback and carry it in a travel. i consider it a really good story...

    Me encantó la idea romántica de este libro de dos personas conectando a través de la compra de libros y una correspondencia ya perdida en medio del caos multimedia de hoy día. Sin duda una lectura amena y altamente recomendable.

    A sweet and wonderful reading, it's ideal for book lovers! It makes you feel the sensation of fine book paper in your hand....And what about the bookshop? You can really imagine the tall shelves with their treasures..Love for books is the key of the friendship between Helen and Frank, in spite of their different cultural background: this reminds me of all the friends I knew thanks to bookcrossing :)
    There is also a very nice film from the book, I loved it too, Anthony Hopkins is a charming Frank Doel, I hope you all can see it.

  • 能夠一起讀原著與譯本真是很有趣的事, 彷彿和書友(呵呵, 冒昧啦) 同步討論自己對語句的詮釋. 每個人對文字的感受都不同 - 不管是說的讀的聽的都一樣, 有時拍手叫好, 有時蹙眉反對. 讀書的樂趣不就在此嗎!

  • 84, Charing Cross Road

  • Fasinating story about the friendship between a book buyer and clerks of a bookstore who never met.
