Books could help Welsh town to turn over a new leaf

Charles Davis points to This Guardian Story that
says In a bold experiment, to see if tourists can be
lured into an obscure south Wales town to buy books,
at least eight bookshops will open simultaneously in
Blaenavon in June.

“It’ll work!” insisted butcher Wayne Lewis,
waving his cleaver. “I’m already wondering what we can
do to get them in here. Buy one book, get one sausage
free?”
