Having failed at my first life plan, to make my millions as a Rock Star and retire to a big house in Ireland at 22 years old, I decided to get a proper Job. In 1990 I exchanged the black leather, hair dye and silly shoes for the world of books.
Not having an area of specialist knowledge allows me to deal in anything that catches my eye. My only criteria for my stock is that I must find it interesting, beautiful, unusual or challenging.
I buy based on my instinct and, with a good reference library to back me up, sell books using a mixture of enthusiasm and knowledge.
Looking at my books many have commented on the fact that I might have an eighteenth century economics book on the same shelf as a modern first edition of a childrens book. I feel that all books have their merits and that just because you like one style or subject doesn't mean you have to ignore others. This broad range of books keeps my job interesting throughout the year. One week I might be cataloguing early travel books, the next it could be post-war fiction.
The dreams of Rock Stardom have now faded, although someone was heard to comment recently that "Paul Foster is to Bookselling what The Beatles were to Pop Music".
