The Aldeburgh Bookshop has been in business for 60 years this year.  The owners, John and Mary James, took on the shop in 2000.  In April 2005 we won the 'Nibby' (the Oscar of the booktrade) for The Independent Bookshop of the Year Award at The British Book Awards.  Recently in 2008 we were placed 4th in the Independent's list of The 50 Best Bookshops in the UK. 

The PROGRAMME and ORDER FORM for The 9th Aldeburgh Literary Festival can be seen here.

The Festival takes place from Friday 5th to Sunday 7th March 2010.

For details of last year's festival see The Aldeburgh Literary Festival and read all about it in Charles Moore's article in the Daily Telegraph on March 11th: Writers thrive on their trip to the seaside.
