Testimonials
Hi guys,

just went through the collection of books in various sections, and all i can say is that apart from the contemporary collection, the collection of books from the "Good ol days" is the best i have come across so far. The collection stirs up emotions inside that take a book lover or a random reader like myself on a very sweet, Nostalgic magic carpet ride. I have not been able to spend too much time on the site, just a mere glance but I'm sold and convinced that you guys got a regular customer in me. Thanks a lot for this MUCH needed dose of nostalgia, and the best part being the convenience...cheers to that and i hope to see the collection increase.

About Book
A significant departure for Maggie O'Farrell in terms of maturity and style, THE VANISHING ACT OF ESME LENNOX" "will be one of the unmissable publishing events of 2006. Set between the 1930s,and the present, Maggie O'Farrell's new novel is the story of Esme, a woman edited out of her family's history, and of the secrets that come to light when, sixty years later, she is released from care, and a young woman, Iris, discovers the great aunt she never knew she had. The mystery that unfolds is the heartbreaking tale of two sisters in colonial India and 1930s Edinburgh - of the loneliness that binds them together and the rivalries that drive them apart, and lead one of them to a shocking betrayal - but above all it is the story of Esme, a fiercely intelligent, unconventional young woman, and of the terrible price she is made to pay for her family's unhappiness.
