Welcome to episode #67!
Mr B's Emporium is a beautiful, energetic, and innovative bookshop on John Street in the heart of Bath, England. The bookshop is a bright labyrinthine space where book-related chatter and advice seem ever-present and you never know what you might encounter next, from claw-foot bath book displays to toilets illustrated by Chris Riddell.
Nic and Juliette Bottomley opened Mr Bs in 2006 and it has twice been named the UK's best independent bookshop. In 2015 the Guardian named Mr B's one of the ten best bookshops in the world.
