Win a signed copy of The Bookshop of the Broken Hearted and 12 bottles of Australian wine

For anyone who's ever had their heart broken, anyone who's ever had their broken heart mended, and anyone who's ever visited a bookshop...

Robert Hillman's The Bookshop of the Broken Hearted is a life-affirming tale with a distinctive cast of characters – set in Australia in 1968, Auschwitz survivor Hannah Babel asks lonely local farmer Tom Hope to help her build the country’s most beautiful bookshop.

An early exclusive edition of The Bookshop of the Broken Hearted is available during Independent Bookshop Week (15th-22nd June) and we're giving one lucky Caboodler a signed copy and 12 bottles of Australian wine.

10 runners-up will win each win a signed copy of the book.

I loved this disarmingly affecting novel, which is full of insight into the human condition and the nature of tragedy and love and redemption. Read it and let it touch your soul as it has touched mine.’ - Garth Stein, New York Times bestselling author of The Art of Racing in the Rain and A Sudden Light
