As you may have read yesterday, the acclaimed Canadian Author and Lecturer David Gilmour (not the one in Pink Floyd) ruffled a fair few feathers when he declared that he would not use books written by women as course material. He made a solitary exception, Virginia Woolf, but his insistence that female authors were somehow inferior wasn’t particularly well received.

When we launched the ‘Take Your Pick Tuesday’ promotion, we weren’t entirely sure how our customers would react. There were a couple of worst case scenarios we had considered beforehand; one in which the idea was entirely ignored or universally pilloried, the second where it exploded instantaneously leaving us with an unmanageable bombardment of queries and complaints (something we came close to).
As you will have noticed, we’ve been running a promotion with our good friends at teapigs. So every time you order from World of Books, you receive a free cuppa. Our customers can also take advantage of a special promotion, using the discount code Teaandbooks you can get 20% off at teapigs.co.uk. So if you enjoyed your free sample, you can now pick up more for less through their online store.
Tea drinkers rejoice! We’ve joined together with our good friends at Teapigs to offer a free cuppa with every order.
We believe that the only thing that makes a good book better is a nice warm brew to accompany it. Okay, sitting on a sunny beach is probably a very close second, but that is a little beyond our powers unfortunately. So that is why we are giving away a free tea temple with any order on World of Books.
