"The Haunted Bookshop" is a novel by Christopher Morley, published in 1919. Despite its title, it is not a ghost story but a mystery and love letter to the world of books. Set in a quaint bookshop in Brooklyn, owned by the eccentric bibliophile Roger Mifflin, the narrative revolves around the mysterious disappearance of a valuable book and the ensuing adventure that unfolds. The protagonist, Mifflin, is a fervent believer in the power and importance of literature. His bookshop, though called haunted, is metaphorically so, with the spirits of the authors and their creations lingering in the air. The plot thickens when a young advertising man, Aubrey Gilbert, enters the scene, leading to a series of events involving coded messages, a potential German spy, and the backdrop of post-World War I America. Morley's work is a charming blend of suspense, humor, and bibliophilia, celebrating the intellectual curiosity and serendipity found within the walls of a good bookshop, making it a timeless classic for literature enthusiasts.
