AUTHORS

Ruth Shaw
Ruth Shaw runs a cluster of three wee bookshops in remote Manapouri in the far south of New Zealand. She lives with her husband, Lance. In 2022 she published her first memoir, The Bookseller at the End of the World, which has since become a critically acclaimed national and international treasure. It has been translated into Italian, Dutch, German, Turkish, Chinese, Swedish, Russian, Slovakian, Korean, Spanish and Arabic. Her second book Bookshop Dogs came out in October 2023, and instantly became a NZ bestseller. It's available in the UK and the US (Nov 2024) and is translated into Italian and Russian.
