The Haunted Bookshop

By Christopher Morley.

A Mysterious Story. This is a dramatic novel set in Brooklyn around the end of the First World War. It continues the story of Roger Mifflin, the bookstore of Parnassus on Wheels. It also subtly embodies the career of Miss Titania Chapman and a young salesman named Aubrey Gilbert. "The Haunted Bookstore" is certainly not an extraordinary novel. Perhaps the name implies the phantom of the past that often appears in all libraries and bookstores: "The phantom of all incredible writing." Throughout the novel, Molly mentions the personality of Roger Mifflin The information and acuity that people can get from writing. The story begins with the young salesman Aubrey Gilbert (Aubrey Gilbert), who stopped in front of a bookstore called "The Haunted Bookstore", hoping to find another customer. Gilbert met the boss Roger Mifflin. Gilbert does not have the upper hand in selling and promoting copies. (From Amazon).
