Jarndyce Antiquarian Booksellers

Nineteenth-century literatureDickensAntiquarianRare books
Directly across the road from the British Museum, Jarndyce trades from an eighteenth-century house that still has its working fireplace. Named after the endless lawsuit in Bleak House, it is the place in London for the nineteenth century in print, with Dickens at the heart of the stock. Weekday opening only, so plan the visit.
