Dave and Goliath: maverick writer Eggers makes a stand against Amazon
The author likes small bookshops. So he won’t let the online giant sell his new hardback
The plight of the high street bookshop, struggling against the power of the online giants, is a common complaint either side of the Atlantic. But not often do the prominent players, the authors and publishers, put their words into action and take a stand against the tide.
