Quotes by Charlie Hill  (?)

“Despite the promise of four days of sun and overly sweet wine, Richard was sporting a sour puss. But then that was to be expected - he sold books for a living, after all.”
Charlie Hill, Books

“The book looked doomed, assailed on all sides by those who'd see it superseded by the synthetic-new and those who didn't give two shiny ones. With the recession forging ahead with renewed vigour, bookselling too was going the way of papyrus, taking with it what was left of Richard's self-esteem, his beer money and his comedic persona.”
Charlie Hill, Books

“By all means," said Richard. "Let's talk about something other than books. Something safer. Like politics or religion.”
Charlie Hill, Books
