Gift Ideas from Martijn
Every year we present you with our Gift Ideas: books, magazines, games or merchandise that we think would make great gifts in the December month.
This year we decided to introduce all our buyers to you at the same time. That way, if you want an expert, you’ll know exactly who to turn to in which store.
Martijn

What items from the list above do you want to highlight?
“Animalium and The Sick Rose. Beautifully produced books, and both have sequels out now: Historium and Crucial Interventions.
“Binge. This year has just seen an explosion of internet stars producing books.
“The Global Minotaur and Swimming with Sharks, because these books are written by Europeans. It’s nice to highlight something non-US or -UK sometimes!”
