Yellow-Lighted Bookshop Tetbury

Our name comes from a book by Lewis Buzbee, a history of bookshops, and why they are socially, culturally and economically important. Lewis got the image from a letter than Vincent van Gogh (who had worked as a bookseller) wrote to his brother not long before he died. Van Gogh wanted to go back to Paris, and on a wet November evening, paint the yellow light of the bookshop pouring onto the street outside. We are very lucky to live and work in an amazing area, and we try to support our communities in every way we can. We are particularly interested in children’s and educational books.
