暢銷小說《A.J. 的書店人生》電影書封版。島嶼書屋是間維多利亞風格的小屋，門廊上掛著褪色的招牌，上面寫著：｢沒有人是座孤島，一書一世界，一書一天堂。｣。書店老闆A. J.將探索這句話的真義。"Marvelously optimistic about the future of books and bookstores and the people who love both."--The Washington Post A. J. Fikry's life is not at all what he expected it to be. He lives alone, his bookstore is experiencing the worst sales in its history, and now his prized possession, a rare collection of Poe poems, has been stolen. But when a mysterious package appears at the bookstore, its unexpected arrival gives Fikry the chance to make his life over--and see everything anew. "This novel has humor, romance, a touch of suspense, but most of all love--love of books and bookish people and, really, all of humanity in its imperfect glory." --Eowyn Ivey, author of The Snow Child "You won't want it to end." --Family Circle "A natural for book groups." --Richmond Times-Dispatch "A reader's paradise of the first order." --The Buffalo News "A fun, page-turning delight." --Minneapolis Star Tribune
