I'm wondering how Foyles competes now. It used to be a near-mythical warren of floor to ceiling piles of obscure technical and academic books. At some point in the mid 00s it moved to a cleaner slightly newer building and became tidier and more antiseptic.
The old building has been replaced by a bizarre wrinkly pink-ish box.
I haven't been for years. I'm curious if it's gone more mainstream.
- jjgreen 3y agoDefinitely more mainstream, corporate, antiseptic. Still one of the best (if not the best) big bookshops in London, still worth a visit (but do have a schlepp down to Goldsboro and Any Amount further down the road).
