We've just been interviewing for a Saturday position, and of course we ask "So you want to work in a bookshop - what do you like to read?" Three applicants seeking their first job after GCSEs said "Great Expectations" and one said "The Return of the Native". Go figure...
We also interviewed a girl, the same age, for a Sunday position who had not only read Rebecca but had also then moved on to Jamaica Inn, and gave such a good precis of it that I wanted to read it myself. She starts next week.
