In Store now! Sh*t Cassandra Saw by Gwen E. Kirby

A genre-defying set of funny, furious, and bizarre stories from one of today’s most inventive voices. Like Margaret Atwood by way of Buffy, these stories span ancient history, the internet, and metafiction, all told with Gwen E. Kirby’s acerbic and lacerating wit. A risky, and determined set of stories that mark the emergence of an incredibly idiosyncratic modern voice, Sh*t Cassandra Saw find Kirby in conversation with other women, past, present, and future. We would do well to pay attention.

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.
