Our Launch Party

We held our official launch party on Thursday 26th November and it is was a wonderful success - there were so many people we even steamed up the windows!

All photos were taken by the fantastic Marta Starosta.

Author and friend of the shop, John Boyne, made a lovely introductory speech. Bob then welcomed everyone to The Gutter Bookshop.

The wonderful Anthony Horowitz made a surprise vist.

Writer Charlie Connelly was also in attendance, and publishers were also well-represented by their agents.

Whilst Anthony Horowitz signed books, Irish writers Marita Conlon-McKenna and Christine Dwyer-Hickey caught up. Bob is pictured with author Ronan O'Brien.
