Moscow Shopping: Books
|
|
Russians were once the greatest consumers of books per capita in the world, and reading still ranks highly among the nation's favourite passtimes. Sadly, the publishing industry has yet to fully recover from the ravages of the 1990s, and Russian literature buffs will be hard pressed to find much but the latest releases and the best-known classics. Foreign-language literature, on the other hand, is increasingly widely available, and no longer at the shockingly inflated prices that were once the norm.
