 "Mjölken till colan:   - Du är läskig!"  "Nå Alex, hur många ben har en elefant?   - Sex. Två framben, två bakben, två elfenben."  Ballongfärd  "Det är poliskontroll och polisen stoppar en bilist.   - Får jag gå igenom din bil? frågar polisen.   - Javisst, men är det inte lättare att gå runt den?" En snickare gör ett ansträngande jobb

Man lever ett spännande liv...

Heavy work on the opposite side of the street.

What's outside of the book is also what's inside.

Here is what I've documented of the fall. Dry leaves skidding stiffly across the pavement in the breeze. A brown and yellow forest seen through a window on a porch, me tucked into warm blankets and sweaters on my chair.

We are closed on Sat 3rd.

A classic looking as a classic!

Today's book is a disturbing tale with many twists along with thought-provoking insights.

Today's book is from the Fifties, on Jazz, spotted in a window.

Sorry, we're closed on Saturday

This is what it looks like when you stuff a band and 14 people into a little bookshop. You should have heard the sound as well! Thank you Naked Orchestra for your great music!   Listen to some of the music at our facebook page here .     

On Saturday September 22nd, the shop will be invaded by Naked Orchestra! Come and enjoy fired up folky drunken tunes at 2:00 pm. Even if it's raining like on this picture from last week, it will be crowded in here!   Drinks and sweets will be served from 12:00 pm. Listen at their facebook-page .

We don't carry many detective novels in the bookshop, but this one's an exception. Mainly because of my current fascination with Italy and Venice.

Summer is great, but come fall and orange skies at sunset, warm afternoons before sneaking under a blanket with a good book!

Dilbert is my favourite daily comic, nowadays. There's nothing as weirdly funny as office humour. If you're into it as well, come to the shop and look at more Dilbert and funny office related literature.

My attempt at the beautiful cover of 'Tom Bedlam'.

This is a great sight for a book-lover. A book bound in beautiful orange cloth. Alright, it's in French, but beauty has no borders!

Pictured is Michail Uljanov, who was a Soviet moviestar. The drawing is made from one of the picture postcards that we sell - vintage postcards from the Soviet Union! (They were purchased in Tbilisi, Georgia, in the spring of 2011.)   If you're into film and cinema, for instance we have some books about actors and directors, as well as on how to write scripts for film.

Wild flowers and concrete slabs! That's part of big city life. Our Books is the bookshop with the ambition to offer great litterature along with inspirational and practical books on (city) gardening and do-it-yourself projects, as well as art and handicraft.

We open again on August 8th!   Meanwhile, enjoy an example of beautiful book-design. 'The Earth knows my name' contains wisdom from Native Americans concerning planting and growing food.   Also, enjoy this picture of the tomato plants we keep in the storefront window. I love the smell which is released when you touch the leaves of the tomato plant.   Finally, behold an example of what you can make from a rejected pocket book and some paint.   See you soon!

A very hot day today.   Today's picture depicts Joseph Heller's 'Something happened'. The author also wrote the classic 'Catch 22'.
