Avid reader wins his own bookstore in a raffle

Morris, who worked in the book industry for years before he opened his own shop, told the Guardian that he had chosen to take early retirement at 52 after his osteoarthritis worsened.I thought about selling it, but I thought instead, lets give someone an opportunity in life which they might not otherwise have had. The principle was to make sure the shop continues in good hands, he said. [Ceisjan] is a regular customer and Im really pleased it was him he wants to run it. You can make a very good living from it far too many bookshops have disappeared over the years.
