MessageI have just begun to read the book. Now, I was looking for 84 Charing Cross Road in London, by Google Maps. ¡ I was there three years ago but then I couldn´t imagine this fantastic history! Great book. See you.

MessageHey, I'm currently directing the stage version of this fantastic story. It's really great to get into the head of Miss Hanff and of Frank. If you are interested in watching one of the greatest love stories ever told (well in my eye's anyway) visit www.honleyplayers-ads.org.uk for more info. This is a play I have wanted to direct for ages and this is my chance.
Great site
Mark

Message84 Charing Cross Road is near the Palace Theatre, which is at the crossing of Charing Cross and Shaftesbury Avenue. In 1981, when I first passed that way, the shop was a record store owned by a couple of young guys who claimed to have moved in with no knowledge of Marks & Co or Helen Hanff. However, tourists asking after Marks & Co inspired them to lay in a supply of Ms Hanff's book, which they displayed beside the cash register. They also scrubbed up the old Marks & Co sign stored in the basement and mounted it along the stairs to the second floor for all to see.

Since 1981, the space has housed a variety of tenants, of which I remember a restaurant. A kitchen outfitter may be there now.

MessageI just came across your site this evening after watching the movie 84 Charing Cross Road, yet again. It's one of my favourites and I look forward to buying it instead of renting it over and over. I was reminded of this lovely story when reading the book "The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society", a delightful read which also is told through letters. They both have the common thread of love of books and reading, made real through memorable characters. Thanks for the interesting website! I did visit Charing Cross Road in 1996 and look forward to returning someday soon.

MessageTo paraphrase Helene in a letter to Frank..."I'd much rather read about things that really happened to people who really lived"...this book and The Duchess of Bloomsbury Street are truly classics.
