Montage avec deux exemplaires de Défaire le suicidisme sur une pile de livres de Burn~Août. L'un montre la couverture, l'autre la quatrième avec un macaron "en librairie".

Notre table au salon des éditions NRV avec des exemplaires de Défaire le suicidisme. C'est un livre violet avec une composition typographique en blanc. Le titre a des mots un peu de travers, et le résumé en deux dessous, réparti sur deux colonnes.

Une décision qui fait écho à la disparition prochaine annoncée de la librairie Labbé de #Blois 😪
▶️ Et où il est aussi question de #Cultura... A enquêter ! 😑

PERPIGNAN : Le tribunal de commerce de #Perpignan a confirmé des irrégularités dans l'implantation du magasin Cultura, au sud de la ville
▶️ Le magasin ne peut plus recevoir de clients, avec effet immédiat. Il doit fermer ses portes, en attendant un éventuel appel.
▶️ Le Code du commerce impose, pour l'ouverture de tels magasins dans les zones commerciales, l'autorisation de la CDAC
Mais Cultura n'a pas obtenu l'autorisation de la CDAC, puisque tout simplement, il ne l'a pas demandée…

Local author 🚨 klaxon 🚨

@lyndseycroal 's In This City Where it Rains has just arrived from Luna Press. We had a terrific launch last spring for Lyndsey's short story collection.

A delight to have the fabbity-fab illustrator Ross Collins, back, creating a new window to celebrate his & Julian Gough's When Tad Kicked Vlad (pub Faber), which made all of us giggle.

We've made a shelf just for classic #ScienceFiction in the SF section, here are three Joe has loved over the years:

The Illustrated Man: as a youngster, this short story collection was my gateway into the works of Ray Bradbury (still reading him today)

I Am Legend, Matheson's slim classic (oft-filmed, never really quite getting the book) captures that era of Cold War paranoia, fear and isolation

Wasp, a delightful, slightly anarchic adventure romp, beloved by Terry Pratchett. A highly resourceful agent is dropped on an enemy planet to cause distractions (the way a wasp can distract a much larger creature). The humour is like a forerunner of Harrison's later Stainless Steel Rat.

#WhatWereReading : Joe found John Scalzi's When the Moon Hits Your Eyes - where, in an almost Wallace & Gromit move, the Moon literally becomes cheese! - to be a total delight!

Out now in paperback from Tor / Macmillan , an ideal fun distraction from all the current woes.
