Feminist Book Fortnight is back!
Saturday 14th - Saturday 28th May 2022
After a 2 year gap during the pandemic Feminist Book Fortnight is back!
The original Feminist Book Fortnight, ran from 1984-1991 and served as an annual British book trade promotion which grew out of the flourishing women’s movements of the time. Rebooted in 2018 by the very excellent Jane Anger from our radical friends at Five Leaves bookshop, we are *delighted* to be one of the many indie bookshops involved again this year. You can read more about the history of FBF in their article here.
Here’s our events on the shop floor for FBF22
Sat 14th May: author talk Held In Contempt by Hannah White - 3pm
Sat 21st May: book launch Once A Mother, Always A Mother by Annette Byford - 11am

Join the conversation online on Twitter: @FeministBkFt22 and on Facebook: @feministbookfortnight
We are open:
Monday - Saturday
10am - 5.30 pm
We are back open six days a week, with the whole store open for browsing. We will still of course be taking customer orders and you will still be able to buy food and cleaning products online through our online store.
We are able to be open 6 days a week again because of your consideration and care whilst in the shop. Though things are opening up, covid cases are still high and a lot of our staff have only received one jab. So we are asking customers to continue to leave that extra space, sanitise their hands and pull on their mask. We really appreciate it.
