Hanff recalls her serendipitous discovery of a volume of lectures by a Cambridge don, Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch. She devoured Qs book, and, wanting to read all the books he recommended, began to order them from a small store in London at 84, Charing Cross Road.Thus began a correspondence that became an enormously popular book, play, television production, and movie, and that finally led to the trip to England -- and a visit to Qs study -- that she recounts in this exuberant memoir. Hanff pays her debt to her mentor and shares her joyous adventures with her many fans.\"Reading Helene Hanffs book is like making a new friend -- a charming, wise, and funny one.\" -- Betty Rollin\"A potpourri . . . easy and assured . . . A delightful companion for the odd hour.\" -- San Francisco Chronicle\"Hanffs charm is such that when she exults . . . we exult right along with her.\" -- Kirkus Reviews\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51531305025824,"sku":"NEW0140089365","price":15.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/91Z_wXxc3IL.jpg?v=1777277589","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/qs-legacy-a-delightful-account-of-a-lifelong-love-affair-with-books-0140089365","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
