芙洛倫絲因為先生去世，決定為自己實現長久以來的夢想：開一間書店。最後來到英國濱海的寧靜小鎮哈博洛，經營起鎮上唯一的書店。她引進了如「蘿莉塔」及「華氏451度」等文學巨作，開拓了小鎮居民的視野，生意逐漸蒸蒸日上。然而這保守、傳統的小鎮似乎還沒做好改變的準備。


In a small East Anglian town, Florence Green decides, against polite but ruthless local opposition, to open a bookshop. Hardborough becomes a battleground.

Florence has tried to change the way things have always been done, and as a result, she has to take on not only the people who have made themselves important, but natural and even supernatural forces too.

Her fate will strike a chord with anyone who knows that life has treated them with less than justice.
