Following the same format as the cult hit Paris in Store, this quirky look at 100 of London’s offbeat shops and shop windows is a delightful record of a disappearing world, a refreshing counterpoint to the increasingly globalized, world of 21st-century shops and shopping experiences. This snapshot of authentic, non-corporate London Features a wide range of businesses, from the mainstream – Agent Provocateur and Lamborghini – to the defiantly idiosyncratic, for example taxidermists ‘Get Stuffed’ and Miss Hughes’s sweetie stall at Spitalfields Market.

Here is a quirky look at one hundred of New York’s offbeat shops and shop windows, from such Manhattan mainstays as Macy’s and Katz’s Delicatessen to the idiosyncratic, including the 99¢ store on East 14th Street, or Dr Rico Perez’s drugstore in the Bronx. At a time when much of New York is succumbing to the uniformity of the mall, these are the shops that are bucking the trend. • This colourful antidote to corporate blandness follows the same format as cult hits London in Store and Paris in Store • All types of store are here! Track them down with calling cards, which detail the shops' names and locations Valérie Weill and Philippe Chancel co-wrote Paris in Store and London in Store. Novelist and poet Harry Mathews is a native New Yorker, and now divides his time between Paris and London.
