For the Love of Bookstores . . . in Books!

"The books housed in one's first adult bookshelf are the geological bed of who we wish to become."

In The Secret of Lost Things, Sheridan Hay explores the curiosities and interests of booksellers and collectors through the lens of a used and rare book store in New York City. When a missing manuscript of Herman Melville's is discovered, a young woman is thrown into an unexpected journey toward answers. The unusual bookshop is so vibrant and alive that it feels like its own character in the novel.
