Man with rimless spectacles: Have you got any Tom Clancy?
Emily: Not at the moment, I’m afraid.
Man with rimless spectacles: How about The Sum of All Fears by Tom Clancy?
Emily: We don’t have any Tom Clancy.
Man with rimless spectacles: Because I’m looking for Tom Clancy first editions.
Emily: Well, sorry, we don’t have any at the moment.
Man with rimless spectacles: : Are there other bookshops round here?
Emily: Yes, if you turn right when you leave the shop, there are several more.
Man with rimless spectacles: Is that going back the way I’ve just come from?
Emily: I don’t know where you’ve just come from.
Man with rimless spectacles: Right.

"In a town like London there are always plenty of not quite certifiable lunatics walking the streets, and they tend to gravitate towards bookshops, because a bookshop is one of the few places where you can hang about for a long time without spending any money."
