We're looking forward to this chat with lovely Jane Barr, former Wardini bookseller and now award winning author. Her debut novel, World, just won the Bronze Medal in the 2025 Global Book Awards and her brand of literary treasures, Jane Barr Books, is going from strength to strength. Here's the philosophy:'Jane Barr Books believes imperatively in the existence of hard copies that line up in the world with their ebook counterparts. Alongside this belief is the thought that reading is a fundamental lifeskill; as well as being a pathway to happiness and mental wellbeing.
Over time they want to collaborate with all kinds of art forms. Most particularly they want to support booksellers and also libraries so that they remain an integral of contemporary society.'
Free event, all welcome.
