Over 45 years, the Wivenhoe Bookshop has put down deep roots and become a central part of Wivenhoe life. A visit or call to the bookshop isn’t just about a purchase, it’s a conversation, perhaps a long and discursive one, catching up with friends and making new ones.  There will often be an embrace or a shared cup of tea.  Our interests range from the latest adult fiction and children's books to contemporary poetry, political debate, psychogeography and much more. And we are always interested in what is grabbing your imagination too.

Our love of books, reading and the written and spoken word is about finding common ground, widening our perspectives, and sharing new ideas. The ties that bind a local community need to be nurtured and sustained, and during the last couple of years Wivenhoe has puts its arms around us and reminded us why we do what we do at the bookshop. Thank you friends.

Thank you for shopping at Bookshop.org, and supporting independent bookshops! When you choose to shop here, rather than with certain non-tax paying multinational corporations, we get a share of the profit, and you support our business. You can choose from our curated lists, or search for any book in the 'Find a book' search box at the top of the page.

With much love
