Disappointed to see this on their Facebook page last week\u00a0 ‘Pop Up Bookshop Wolverhampton October 28th Sadly at the moment there isn’t a shop available to rent in the Wulfrun centre and the one in the Mander Centre is too small. We are still hoping a shop comes available in the next few weeks… keep your eye on this page. Jude and Steve’ In some ways this is actually good news in that a) they like to think big when it comes to shops and b) shops are being relet although I suspect a lot are for just the run up to Christmas. If they do manage to find premises I’ll be there to report back. UPDATE <\/strong>They have just posted they can’t get a shop this year but fingers crossed for next.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n

Ltd, namely three titles in ‘The Spanish Inquisition<\/span><\/strong><\/a>‘ series. I will revert to the PAN titles shortly as still checking I have all the ones they actually published plus trying to ttrack down the artists.<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
