James Daunt is a controversial figure in the book world. Although less so lately, he has for many years been a perennial fixture at book fairs and conferences. And whilst his passion for books has won admirers, as has his desire to empower booksellers to do what they do best and curate interesting collections for their branch of his giant chains (Waterstones, Barnes and Noble, the eponymous Daunt, and various independently labeled stores under the same umbrella).
