When we’re allowed back into the big wide world, supporting independent bookshops will be more pressing than ever. 

This wonderful tome shows the best to visit across the globe. There’s Morioka Shoten in Tokyo, which takes minimalism to a new level, stocking only one book at a time.

Or the majestic Carturesti Carusel in Bucharest (pictured), a palace nationalised under the communist regime that stood empty for 25 years but which opened as a bookshop in 2015 after full restoration. 

Bookworms all over the world will love this juicy apple of an offering.
