A Sense of Place Book Subscription
Looking for a postal book subscription for yourself, or as a gift for a friend? Journey around the world from the comfort of an armchair with our A Sense of Place book subscription.
Each carefully selected book you receive will have a strong sense of place, setting, and atmosphere, and will offer an insight into a different country, city, or location each month.
You can select a three or six month subscription option, which includes the price of UK postage.
FAQs:
- Can I gift a subscription to a friend?
Absolutely! Please enter their name and delivery address at the checkout, un-tick 'Use shipping address as billing address', and add your own details under the billing address.
- Can I add a note?
Of course! To do this, please add the subscription to your basket, click on 'cart', followed by 'Add a note to your order', then write the note you'd like us to enclose with the first book that we send.
- When will books be sent?
Books will be posted 1-3 working days after you first place your order. Once your subscription has been shipped, we will email your tracking link to you (which might be filtered into your spam folder...)
Subsequent books will be posted 4 weeks later (for example, if your first book is posted on Monday, 8th July, your second book will be posted on Monday 5th August). If you would like to change your next posting date at any point, please do email us to arrange this.
- What happens if I already have the book?
No problem at all! Please return the book to us in its original packaging, and we will send two books to you the following month.
- What kind of books will the subscription include?
We carefully select books from around the world which have a strong sense of place or setting, and each month you will receive a book featuring a different location.
The majority of titles will be fiction in translation from outside the UK, but we will occasionally choose non-fiction titles, works originally written in English, or set in the UK, when we feel that they offer an unexpected viewpoint, and of course, a strong sense of place!
Titles will include a range of different genres, and many will be from independent presses or smaller publishers.
