Many more books in the Library
Make sure to drop in regularly because The Bookworm's buying partner in the States continues to supply new non-fiction titles. Our fiction section meanwhile is growing by the day through kind donations from members and people leaving China. We now have 14,000 titles - that's 12,000 more than this time two years ago!
New Books for Sale
The Bookworm is building relationships with overseas publishers to grow our catalogue of new books for sale.
For Sinophiles, we have new stocks of our all-time best-selling books 1 Billion Customers by James McGregor (120RMB) and The Chinese (170RMB) by Jasper Becker. We also have a brand new batch of the much-requested China Shakes the World (195RMB), by James Kynge, as well as a fabulous range of fiction from Chinese authors and from those further afield using China as their subject matter.
Our range of general fiction continues to grow exponentially, and we're now proud to feature literature from authors as diverse and distinguished as Rushdie, Garcia Marquez, Kafka, Atwood, Murakami, Zadie and Ali Smith, and Orhan Pamuk.
Business Books
