What we buy

We're always looking to buy books, though our needs at the moment are fairly specific.  They do change from time to time but condition is always essential.  We only buy books that are in exemplary shape, and we are interested in both hardcovers and paperbacks. Subjects we are looking for now include:

Weird fiction - Arkham House, Lovecraft, Ligotti, Aickman, James, Blackwood, Dion Fortune etc.
Classic 20th Century literature - Hemingway, Steinbeck, McCullers, Fitzgerald, Orwell, Isherwood etc
Vintage mystery and crime fiction
Poetry - especially as published by Faber, City Lights, New Directions etc
Canadian plays
Martial Arts - grapplng, self-defence, BJJ, judo etc

We do not buy text books, self-help books, books on pregnancy, children and families or recent bestsellers, with a few exceptions such as Cormac McCarthy and William Boyd.
