The English Bookshop sig hangin over the new bookshop in Stockholm Old Town

[ UPDATE June 8th, 2015: After seven amazing years in Gamla stan/Old Town, we are now in a bigger shop in Södermalm's SoFo district, on Södermannagatan 22. ]

Located in the Stockholm Old Town, at Lilla Nygtan 11, the bookshop carry pretty much the same range in Stockholm as in the Uppsala shop, except for SF & Fantasy.

You will find the same welcoming atmosphere here, as the Uppsala English Bookshop is famous for: an interior jampacked with exciting books, relaxing chairs and a dedicated staff. We already love this new place in the Old Town of Stockholm and hope you will too!

Modern Fiction Book of the Month – October 2024

While growing up in West Belfast, Sean does everything he’s supposed to do. He works hard, he studies, and he – mostly – stays out of trouble. The thirty-year conflict is over, he’s told, and his future is lit with promise. But when Sean returns home from university, he finds much of the same – the same friends doing the same gear in the same clubs, the same fathers and brothers missing… One night, he assaults a stranger at a party, and everything begins to come undone. Close to Home begins with this sudden act of violence and expands into a startling portrait of working-class Ireland under the long shadow of the Troubles. // Discuss in the Fiction reading group //

Mystery Book of the Month – October 2024

How to put a positive spin on a murder mystery... What happens when a ghostwriter for the rich and famous lands the ultimate gig: writing the memoir of a disgraced presidential candidate? Our witty, nosy narrator arrives at a secluded estate to meet Dorothy Gibson, the fallen political star everyone’s talking about. But when a neighbor turns up dead, the ghostwriter finds herself in the middle of a murder mystery she never saw coming. Add in a secret investigation, a suspiciously handsome man, and a plot twist no one expected – and suddenly, the story she’s writing becomes her own. Perfect for fans of Knives Out and Agatha Christie, this clever, twisty mystery is full of surprises. // Discuss in the Crime reading group in Göteborg //
