The Bluebell Bookshop is on Upper Swallow's Main Street two doors down from the greengrocers and opposite, Rock & Rave Records Its proprietor is a Andy Trimble who used to work for a newspaper in Salisbury before settling in Upper Swallow. Andy has a reputation as a bit of a political activist. He's an anarchist and models himself on the writings of Kropotkin. He's in love with this English idyll though and Upper Swallow probably represents his retreat into a local, self sufficient, green community. You might like to look at his country section
