We remember both the birthday and passing of late Richard C.F. Wasley, founder of Unicorn Bookshop, who passed away this month in 2011, only a day prior to his 68th birthday.

We continue to pay homage to Richard's idea and vision 37 years ago, and we are sure that he would be proud to see how large and well known worldwide his his little shop became in 2026.
